L-RHAMNULOSE-1-PHOSPHATE ALDOLASE FROM ESCHERICHIA COLI
Overview
The enzyme L-rhamnulose-1-phosphate aldolase catalyzes the reversible, cleavage of L-rhamnulose-1-phosphate to dihydroxyacetone phosphate and, L-lactaldehyde. It is a homotetramer with an M(r) of 30 000 per subunit, and crystallized in space group P3(2)21. The enzyme shows a low sequence, identity of 18% with the structurally known L-fuculose-1-phosphate, aldolase that splits a stereoisomer in a similar reaction. Structure, analysis was initiated with a single heavy-atom derivative measured to 6 A, resolution. The resulting poor electron density, a self-rotation function, and the working hypothesis that both enzymes are C(4) symmetric with, envelopes that resemble one another allowed the location of the 20, protomers of the asymmetric unit. The crystal-packing unit was a, D(4)-symmetric ... [(full description)]
