Abstract excerpt
The structure and function of hydroxynitrile lyase from Manihot esculenta (MeHNL) have been analyzed by X-ray crystallography and site-directed mutagenesis. The crystal structure of the MeHNL-S80A mutant enzyme has been refined to an R-factor of 18.0% against diffraction data to 2.1-A resolution. The three-dimensional structure of the MeHNL-S80A-acetone cyanohydrin complex was determined at 2.2-A resolution and...
