MYROSINASE FROM SINAPIS ALBA
Overview
BACKGROUND: Myrosinase is the enzyme responsible for the hydrolysis of a, variety of plant anionic 1-thio-beta-D-glucosides called glucosinolates., Myrosinase and glucosinolates, which are stored in different tissues of, the plant, are mixed during mastication generating toxic by-products that, are believed to play a role in the plant defence system. Whilst, O-glycosidases are extremely widespread in nature, myrosinase is the only, known S-glycosidase. This intriguing enzyme, which shows sequence, similarities with O-glycosidases, offers the opportunity to analyze the, similarities and differences between enzymes hydrolyzing S- and, O-glycosidic bonds. RESULTS: The structures of native myrosinase from, white mustard seed (Sinapis alba) and of a stable glycosyl-enzyme, intermediate have ... [(full description)]
