A structural basis for substrate and stereo selectivity in octopine dehydrogenase (ODH-NADH-L-Arginine)A structural basis for substrate and stereo selectivity in octopine dehydrogenase (ODH-NADH-L-Arginine)
Structural highlights
3c7c is a 1 chain structure with sequence from Pecten maximus. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
OCDH_PECMA Catalyzes the reverse reaction of octopine dehydrogenation. Acts on L-arginine in preference to other substrates such as canavanine, cysteine, L-alanine, ornithine or norvaline, owing to the presence of the positively charged guanidium group.[1][2]
