Structure of a GH51 α-l-arabinofuranosidase from Meripilus giganteus: conserved substrate recognition from bacteria to fungi

TL;DR: The structure of a fungal α-l-arabinofuranosidase has been determined using sulfur SAD data collected in vacuo using beamline I23 at Diamond Light Source to provide a detailed map of enzyme–substrate interactions that are conserved between bacteria and fungi.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure and function of a glycoside hydrolase family 8 endoxylanase from Teredinibacter turnerae.

TL;DR: The symbionts of marine shipworms provide a rich reservoir of potential carbohydrate-active enzymes and the 1.5 Å resolution three-dimensional structure of a T. turnerae GH8 xylanase is revealed and its potential in biomass degradation is highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI

DNA-drug refinement: A comparison of the programs NUCLSQ, PROLSQ, SHELXL93 and X-PLOR, using the low-temperature d(TGATCA)-nogalamycin structure

TL;DR: Although a different number of water molecules is found in each refinement, varying from 62 (X-PLOR) to 86 (NUCLSQ), the first hydration sphere is well conserved in all four models and the helical parameters and backbone conformation including sugar-puckering modes are not influenced by the refinement procedure used.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ring-chain interconversion of sulforhodamine-amine conjugates involves an unusually labile CN bond and allows measurement of sulfonamide ionization kinetics

TL;DR: The pH-dependent interconversion between ring and chain forms of sultams/sulfonamides derived from conjugates of sulforhodamines with amines, and the associated sulfonamide ionization, have been studied by a combination of equilibrium and kinetic methods.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of a novel pectate lyase, Pel10A, from Pseudomonas cellulosa

TL;DR: In this paper, the catalytic module of a 10 pectate lyase, Pel10A from Pseudomonas cellulosa, was obtained using polyethylene glycol 2000 monomethylether as a precipitant.
