The inter- and intramol. interactions between the different domains of the catalase-peroxidase KatG from Mycobacterium tuberculosis were analyzed using the two-hybrid assay. It was shown that the dimerization of the enzyme is due to a strong interaction of ...
The efficiency of selection for catalysis by phage display library was studied using a ligase (the Escherichia coli biotin ligase BirA) and an endopeptidase (the rat trypsin His57->Ala mutant) as model enzymes. These enzymes could be displayed on phage as ...
A parallel study of the radical copper enzyme galactose oxidase (GOase) and a low mol. wt. analog of the active site was performed with dynamic d. functional and mixed quantum-classical calcns. This combined approach enables a direct comparison of the prop ...
A 33-residue de novo designed peptide ligase is reported which catalyzes the template-directed condensation of suitably activated short peptides with catalytic efficiencies in excess of 105 ([kcat/Km]/kuncat). The ligase peptide, derived from natural and d ...
A parallel study of the radical-copper enzyme Galactose Oxidase (GOase) and a low mol. wt. analog of the active site (Wang et. al. , Science 279, 537 (1998)) was performed with dynamical d. functional and mixed quantum-classical (QM/MM) calcns. This combin ...
Many human anaemias are caused by defects in haemoglobin synthesis. The zebrafish mutant sauternes (sau) has a microcytic, hypochromic anaemia, suggesting that haemoglobin production is perturbed. During embryogenesis, sau mutants have delayed erythroid ma ...
The conformation of NAD bound to dogfish lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was reinvestigated by using an NMR expt. that allows one to exploit NOEs to det. internuclear distances between pairs of protons, without perturbation of spin-diffusion effects from other ...
The understanding of catalytic and enzymic processes at the mol. level is one of the most challenging problems in chem. and biol. A necessary prerequisite for any theor. modeling of these chem. reactions is an appropriate description of the electronic stru ...
Vibrio and Aeromonas spp. secrete an unusual 35-kDa lipase that shares several properties with mammalian lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase. The Aeromonas hydrophila lipase contains two cysteine residues that form an intramolecular disulfide bridge. Here ...
The gene coding for urate oxidase, an enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of uric acid to allantoin, is inactivated in humans. Consequently, urate oxidase is used as a protein drug to overcome severe disorders induced by uric acid accumulation. The structu ...
