چکیده
The three-dimensional structure of a complex of soybean beta-amylase [EC 3.2.1.2] with an inhibitor, alpha-cyclodextrin, has been determined at 3.0 A resolution by X-ray diffraction analysis. Preliminary chain tracing showed that the enzyme folded into large and small domains. The large domain has a (beta alpha)8 super-secondary structure, while the smaller one is formed from two long loops extending from the beta 3 and beta 4 strands of the (beta alpha)8 structure. The interface of the two domains together with shorter loops from the (beta alpha)8 structure form a deep cleft, in which alpha-cyclodextrin binds slightly away from the center. Two maltose molecules also bind in the cleft. One shares a binding site with alpha-cyclodextrin and the other is situated more deeply in the cleft.

Crystal structures of soybean beta-amylase reacted with beta-maltose and maltal: active site components and their apparent roles in catalysis.
The crystal structures of catalytically competent soybean beta-amylase, unliganded and bathed with small substrates (beta-maltose, maltal), were determined at 1.9-2.2-A resolution. Two molecules of beta-maltose substrate bind to the protein in tandem, with some maltotetraose enzymic condensation product sharing the same binding sites. The beta-amylase soaked with maltal shows a similar arrangem...

One of the limitations of aquaculture is the supply of fish meal needed for the aquaculture industry, but the use of plant items instead of fish meal contain anti-nutrients such as non-starch polysaccharides, which is one of the main limitations of using plant items in the diet of carnivorous fish. The present study investigated the in vivo and in vitro enzymes of alpha-amylase, cellulase, xyla...

The gene encoding the beta-amylase of Bacillus cereus BQ10-S1 (SpoII) was cloned into Escherichia coli JM 109. A sequenced DNA fragment of 2,001 bp contains the beta-amylase gene. The N-terminal sequences (AVNGKG MNPDYKAYLMAPLKKI), the C-terminal sequences (SHTSSW), and the amino acid sequences of the five regions in the beta-amylase molecules were determined. The mature beta-amylase contains 5...

Introduction: The design and structural characterization of mini-proteins with a compact, folded structure provide insight into the complex architecture of proteins today and has long been a challenging issue in structural- functional studies. Alpha neurotoxins from snake venom have a distinct folded structure comprised of a disulphide core and three loops or “fingers” each of these loops are c...
متن کاملX-ray structure of Novamyl, the five-domain "maltogenic" alpha-amylase from Bacillus stearothermophilus: maltose and acarbose complexes at 1.7A resolution.
The three-dimensional structure of the Bacillus stearothermophilus "maltogenic" alpha-amylase, Novamyl, has been determined by X-ray crystallography at a resolution of 1.7 A. Unlike conventional alpha-amylases from glycoside hydrolase family 13, Novamyl exhibits the five-domain structure more usually associated with cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase. Complexes of the enzyme with both maltose and...
