Abstract excerpt
The conserved cobalamin-binding domain of glutamate mutase exists as a separate dissociable subunit, MutS. The results obtained from BIAcore analysis indicate that MutS alone, in the absence of E component of glutamate mutase (MutE, catalytic subunit), is capable of binding hydroxocobinamide (OHCbi) with a Kd of 15.4+/-1.6 microM, but fails to bind adenosylcobalamin (AdoCbl). The UV-visible spectrum indicates...
