D405N MUTANT OF THE CELLOBIOHYDROLASE CEL6A FROM HUMICOLA INSOLENS IN COMPLEX WITH METHYL-TETRATHIO-ALPHA-D-CELLOPENTOSIDE AT 1.1 ANGSTROM RESOLUTION
|
OverviewOverview
The enzymatic digestion of cellulose entails intimate involvement of, cellobiohydrolases, whose characteristic active-center tunnel contributes, to a processive degradation of the polysaccharide. The cellobiohydrolase, Cel6A displays an active site within a tunnel formed by two extended, loops, which are known to open and close in response to ligand binding., Here we present five structures of wild-type and mutant forms of Cel6A, from Humicola insolens in complex with nonhydrolyzable, thio-oligosaccharides, at resolutions from 1.7-1.1 A, dissecting the, structural accommodation of a processing substrate chain through the, active center during hydrolysis. Movement of ligand is facilitated by, extensive solvent-mediated interactions and through flexibility in the, hydrophobic surfaces ... [(full description)]
