GALACTOSE RECOGNITION BY THE CARBOHYDRATE-BINDING MODULE OF A BACTERIAL SIALIDASE.
Overview
Glycoside hydrolases often possess carbohydrate-binding modules (CBMs) in, addition to their catalytic domains, which help target the enzymes to, appropriate substrates and thereby increase their catalytic efficiency., Sialidases hydrolyse the release of sialic acid from a variety of, glycoconjugates and play significant roles in the pathogenesis of a number, of important diseases. The sialidase from Micromonospora viridifaciens has, a CBM which recognizes galactose. The CBM is linked to the catalytic, domain by an immunoglobulin-like domain, resulting in the galactose, binding site sitting above the catalytic site, suggesting an interplay, between the two sites. By studying nine crystallographically independent, structures of the M. viridifaciens sialidase, the relative flexibility of, ... [(full description)]
