THE CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF HUMAN CYTOSOLIC BETA-GLUCOSIDASE
|
OverviewOverview
Human cytosolic beta-glucosidase (hCBG) is a xenobiotic-metabolizing, enzyme that hydrolyses certain flavonoid glucosides, with specificity, depending on the aglycone moiety, the type of sugar and the linkage, between them. In this study, the substrate preference of this enzyme was, investigated by mutational analysis, X-ray crystallography and homology, modelling. The crystal structure of hCBG was solved by the molecular, replacement method and refined at 2.7 A resolution. The main-chain fold of, the enzyme belongs to the (beta/alpha)(8) barrel structure, which is, common to family 1 glycoside hydrolases. The active site is located at the, bottom of a pocket (about 16 A deep) formed by large surface loops, surrounding the C termini of the barrel of beta-strands. As for all the, clan of ...
