Publication Abstract from PubMed
Mammalian alpha-amylases catalyze the hydrolysis of alpha-linked glucose polymers according to a complex processive mechanism. We have determined the X-ray structures of porcine pancreatic alpha-amylase complexes with the smallest molecule of the trestatin family (acarviosine-glucose) which inhibits porcine pancreatic alpha-amylase and yet is not hydrolyzed by the enzyme. A structure analysis at 1.38 A resolution of this complex allowed for a clear identification of a genuine single hexasaccharide species composed of two alpha-1,4-linked original molecules bound to the active site of the enzyme. The structural results supported by mass spectrometry experiments provide evidence for an enzymatically catalyzed condensation reaction in the crystal.
