Crystal structure of rat carnitine palmitoyltransferase 2 in space group C2221
Structural highlights
FunctionEvolutionary ConservationCheck, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf. Publication Abstract from PubMedCarnitine palmitoyltransferases (CPTs) are part of the enzymatic system that imports fatty acids into mitochondria. The crystal structure of rat CPT-2 by Rufer et al. (2006) (this issue of Structure) reveals a Y-shaped tunnel for binding the CoA and acyl-carnitine substrates and a hydrophobic insert mediating membrane association. A monotopic membrane protein goes solo.,Mattevi A Structure. 2006 Apr;14(4):628-9. PMID:16615901[1] From MEDLINE®/PubMed®, a database of the U.S. National Library of Medicine.
