Abstract excerpt
The role of the hydroxyl group of tyrosine 6 in the catalytic mechanism of isoenzyme 3-3 of rat glutathione S-transferase has been examined by x-ray crystallography and site-specific replacement of the residue with phenylalanine and evaluation of the catalytic properties of the mutant enzyme. This particuar tyrosine residue is conserved in the sequences of all of the cytosolic enzymes and is found, in crystal...
