The crystal structure of the N-acetylglucosamine-2-epimerase from ''Nostoc'' sp. KVJ10 (nAGE10) was obtained at a resolution of 1.7 Å. <scene name='80/801848/Cv/3'>The nAGE10 monomer</scene> is folds as a (α/α)<sub>6</sub>-barrel in a manner similar to the previously published AGE structures. <span style="color:deepskyblue;background-color:black;font-weight:bold;">The nAGE10 monomer shown from the side in a cartoon representation, it is colored in deepskyblue</span>. <span style="color:red;background-color:black;font-weight:bold;">Waters are shown as red, nonbonded spheres</span>. <span style="color:yellow;background-color:black;font-weight:bold;">Ethylene glycol molecules are represented as yellow sticks</span> and the buried <span style="color:lime;background-color:black;font-weight:bold;">chloride ion as a green sphere</span>. This crystal structure is deposited in the PDB as [[6f04]]. | The crystal structure of the N-acetylglucosamine-2-epimerase from ''Nostoc'' sp.

| - | The previously reported dimer organization, which involved the “back-to-back” assembly of the monomers, could not be found within the nAGE10 crystal. However, a “front-to-front” dimer generated by symmetry is present in all AGE structures with better parameters than the back-to-back organization. | + | The previously reported dimer organization, which involved the “back-to-back” assembly of the monomers, could not be found within the nAGE10 crystal.

The new AGE dimer places the putative ATP binding site(s) at the interface between the monomers with consequences regarding its role in AGE activity. | The new AGE dimer places the putative ATP binding site(s) at the interface between the monomers with consequences regarding its role in AGE activity. | ||
