D254E, D256E MUTANT OF D-XYLOSE ISOMERASE COMPLEXED WITH AL3 AND XYLITOL
OverviewOverview
The active site and mechanism of D-xylose isomerase have been probed by, determination of the crystal structures of the enzyme bound to various, substrates, inhibitors and cations. Ring-opening is an obligatory first, step of the reaction and is believed to be the rate-determining step for, the aldose to ketose conversion. The structure of a complex with a cyclic, thio-glucose has been determined and it is concluded that this is an, analogue of the Michaelis complex. At -10 degrees C substrates in crystals, are observed in the extended chain form. The absence of an appropriately, situated base for either the cyclic or extended chain forms from the, substrate binding site indicates that the isomerisation does not take, place by an enediol or enediolate mechanism. Binding of a trivalent ... [(full description)]
