A SERINE PROTEASE TRIAD FORMS THE CATALYTIC CENTRE OF A TRIACYLGLYCEROL LIPASE

Overview

True lipases attach triacylglycerols and act at an oil-water interface;, they constitute a ubiquitous group of enzymes catalysing a wide variety of, reactions, many with industrial potential. But so far the, three-dimensional structure has not been reported for any lipase. Here we, report the X-ray structure of the Mucor miehei triglyceride lipase and, describe the atomic model obtained at 3.1 A resolution and refined to 1.9, A resolution. It reveals a Ser..His..Asp trypsin-like catalytic triad with, an active serine buried under a short helical fragment of a long surface, loop.

About this Structure

1TGL is a Single protein structure of sequence from Rhizomucor miehei. Active as Triacylglycerol lipase, with EC number 3.1.1.3 Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
