A NOVEL ADP- AND ZINC-BINDING FOLD FROM FUNCTION-DIRECTED IN VITRO EVOLUTION

Overview

A great challenge to biologists is to create proteins with novel folds and, tailored functions. As an alternative to de novo protein design, we, investigated the structure of a randomly generated protein targeted to, bind ATP. The crystal structure reveals a novel alpha/beta fold bound to, its ligand, representing both the first protein structure derived from in, vitro evolution and the first nucleotide-binding protein stabilized by a, zinc ion.

About this Structure

1UW1 is a [Single protein] structure of sequence from [[1]] with ZN and ADP as [ligands]. Full crystallographic information is available from [OCA].
