MALTOSYLTRANSFERASE FROM THERMOTOGA MARITIMA
Overview
Maltosyltransferase (MTase) from the hyperthermophile Thermotoga maritima, represents a novel maltodextrin glycosyltransferase acting on starch and, malto-oligosaccharides. It catalyzes the transfer of maltosyl units from, alpha-1,4-linked glucans or malto-oligosaccharides to other, alpha-1,4-linked glucans, malto-oligosaccharides or glucose. It belongs to, the glycoside hydrolase family 13, which represents a large group of, (beta/alpha)(8) barrel proteins sharing a similar active site structure., The crystal structures of MTase and its complex with maltose have been, determined at 2.4 A and 2.1 A resolution, respectively. MTase is a, homodimer, each subunit of which consists of four domains, two of which, are structurally homologous to those of other family 13 enzymes. The, catalytic ... [(full description)]
