Involvement of tyrosines at fucose-binding sites of Aleuria aurantia lectin: non-equal response to site-directed mutagenesis among five sites.

Bioscience, biotechnology, and biochemistry - 1 Apr 2004

Abstract excerpt

Since the involvement of Tyr residues in the fucose-binding of Aleuria aurantia lectin (AAL) was proved by chemical modification using the Tyr-specific reagent tetranitromethane, site-directed mutagenesis was attempted. Since the tertiary structure of AAL was determined recently to be a six-bladed beta-propeller fold, and five fucose-binding sites per subunit were found, based on positions of Tyr residues in the...
