PIG ALPHA-AMYLASE
Overview
The crystal structures of porcine pancreatic alpha-amylase isozyme II (PPA, II) in its free form and complexed with the trestatin A derived, pseudo-octasaccharide V-1532 have been determined using Patterson search, techniques at resolutions of 2.3 and 2.2 angstroms, respectively. Seven, rings of the competitive inhibitor V-1532 could be detected in the active, site region as well as two maltose units in secondary binding sites on the, surface. V-1532 occupies the five central sugar binding subsites similar, to the PPA/acarbose structure. A sixth ring exists at the reducing end, connecting two symmetry related PPA molecules. The seventh moiety, a, 6-hydroxymethylconduritol ring, is located at the non-reducing end. The, electron density for this ring is relatively weak, indicating ... [(full description)]
