2.6A CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF PSATHYRELLA VELUTINA LECTIN IN COMPLEX WITH N-ACETYLGLUCOSAMINE
Overview
The lectin from the mushroom Psathyrella velutina recognises specifically, N-acetylglucosamine and N-acetylneuraminic acid containing glycans. The, crystal structure of the 401 amino acid residue lectin shows that it, adopts a very regular seven-bladed beta-propeller fold with the N-terminal, region tucked into the central cavity around the pseudo 7-fold axis. In, the complex with N-acetylglucosamine, six monosaccharides are bound in, pockets located between two consecutive propeller blades. Due to the, repeats shown by the sequence the binding sites are very similar. Five, hydrogen bonds between the protein and the sugar hydroxyl and N-acetyl, groups stabilize the complex, together with the hydrophobic interactions, with a conserved tyrosine and histidine. The complex with, ... [(full description)]
