Substrate Recognition by Enzymes: a Theoretical Study
We previously reported that a series of gangliosides inhibited the activity of an enzyme NAD glycohydrolase (CD38), and that those with tandem sialic acid residues in the sugar chain had great inhibitory effect. We describe the results of computer simulations on threedimensional and electronic structures of gangliosides to clarify the causative factors of difference in the inhibitory effect and...
متن کاملSpecificity of substrate recognition by the EcoRI restriction endonuclease.
The substrate specificity of the EcoRI restriction endonuclease can be varied in vitro by changing the pH and the ionic environment of the reaction. Phosphodiester bond cleavage occurs at a DNA hexanucleotide sequence d(N-G-A-A-T-T-C-N)/d(N-C-T-T-A-A-G-N) when the ionic strength is high, 100 mM Tris-HCl, 50 mM NaCl, 5 mM MgCl2, and the pH is approximately 7.3. Lowering the ionic strength to 25 ...
متن کاملSubstrate recognition by nonribosomal peptide synthetase multi-enzymes.
Nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs) are giant multi-domain enzymes that catalyse the biosynthesis of many commercially important peptides produced by bacteria and fungi. Several studies over the last decade have shown that many of the individual domains within NRPSs exhibit significant substrate selectivity, which impacts on our ability to engineer NRPSs to produce new bioactive microbial ...
متن کاملSubstrate recognition and catalysis by flap endonucleases and related enzymes.
FENs (flap endonucleases) and related FEN-like enzymes [EXO-1 (exonuclease-1), GEN-1 (gap endonuclease 1) and XPG (xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group G)] are a family of bivalent-metal-ion-dependent nucleases that catalyse structure-specific hydrolysis of DNA duplex-containing nucleic acid structures during DNA replication, repair and recombination. In the case of FENs, the ability to ...
متن کاملRestriction and modification enzymes and their recognition sequences
Since the last compilation of restriction endonucleases (110), more than 30 Type II restriction endonucleases have been discovered, including some valuable new specificities. These include Acyl (GPuCGPyC), Ddel (CTNAG), Fnu4HI (GCNGC), Rsal (GTAC), SphI (GCAGTC), and XmalH (CGGCCG). In addition, a number of new isoschizomers have been discovered and further information about the recognition seq...
