RADIATION DAMAGE OF THE SCHIFF BASE IN PHOSPHOSERINE AMINOTRANSFERASE (STRUCTURE A)
OverviewOverview
The X-ray susceptibility of the lysine-pyridoxal-5'-phosphate Schiff base, in Bacillus alcalophilus phosphoserine aminotransferase has been, investigated using crystallographic data collected at 100 K to 1.3 A, resolution, complemented by on-line spectroscopic studies. X-rays induce, deprotonation of the internal aldimine, changes in the Schiff base, conformation, displacement of the cofactor molecule, and disruption of the, Schiff base linkage between pyridoxal-5'-phosphate and the Lys residue., Analysis of the "undamaged" structure reveals a significant chemical, strain on the internal aldimine bond that leads to a pronounced, geometrical distortion of the cofactor. However, upon crystal exposure to, the X-rays, the strain and distortion are relaxed and eventually, diminished when the ... [(full description)]
