Abstract excerpt
The amino acid residue tryptophan 27 of 6,7-dimethyl-8-ribityllumazine synthase of the yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe was replaced by tyrosine. The structures of the W27Y mutant protein in complex with riboflavin, the substrate analogue 5-nitroso-6-ribitylamino-2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione, and the product analogue 6-carboxyethyl-7-oxo-8-ribityllumazine, were determined by X-ray crystallography at resolutions of...
