ENDOGLUCANASE I COMPLEXED WITH CELLOBIOSE
Overview
The mechanisms involved in the enzymatic degradation of cellulose are of, great ecological and commercial importance. The breakdown of cellulose by, fungal species is performed by a consortium of free enzymes, known as, cellobiohydrolases and endoglucanases, which are found in many of the 57, glycosyl hydrolase families. The structure of the endoglucanase I (EG I), found in glycosyl hydrolase family 7, from the thermophilic fungus, Fusarium oxysporum has been solved at 2.3 A resolution. In addition to the, native enzyme, structures have also been determined with both the affinity, label, 3,4-epoxybutyl beta-D-cellobioside, and the reaction product, cellobiose. The affinity label is covalently bound, as expected, to the, catalytic nucleophile, Glu197, with clear evidence for binding of ... [(full description)]
