Abstract excerpt
As the first structure of the novel class of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) present in thermophilic archaea, we solved the crystal structure of the ST0318 gene product (St-Fbp) of Sulfolobus tokodaii strain 7. The St-Fbp structure comprises a homooctamer of the 422 point-group. The protein folds as a four-layer alpha-beta-beta-alpha sandwich with a novel topology, which is completely different from the...
