Here, we have individually characterised the structure of the N-terminal, alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH). ADH crystallised with a homodimer formation, which is also adopted in the spirosome assembly in AdhE. Interestingly, this conformation is also highly conserved with other alcohol dehydrogenases in other species. Comparison to the high-resolution structure of AdhE showed that a missing loop in ADH is stabilised by the C-terminal aldehyde dehydrogenase and shows the importance of the interaction for the functionality of AdhE as a whole. | Here, we have individually characterised the structure of the N-terminal, alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH).
