ALCOHOL DEHYDROGENASE FROM THE ARCHAEON SULFOLOBUS SOLFATARICUS

Overview

The crystal structure of a medium-chain NAD(H)-dependent alcohol, dehydrogenase (ADH) from an archaeon has been solved by multiwavelength, anomalous diffraction, using a selenomethionine-substituted enzyme. The, protein (SsADH), extracted from the hyperthermophilic organism Sulfolobus, solfataricus, is a homo-tetramer with a crystallographic 222 symmetry., Despite the low level of sequence identity, the overall fold of the, monomer is similar to that of the other homologous ADHs of known, structure. However, a significant difference is the orientation of the, catalytic domain relative to the coenzyme-binding domain that results in a, larger interdomain cleft. At the bottom of this cleft, the catalytic zinc, ion is coordinated tetrahedrally and lacks the zinc-bound water molecule, that is ... [(full description)]
