Abstract excerpt
Recently, in family 3 beta-glucosidase (BGL), the catalytically important Asp nucleophile has been identified in the SDW segment of the SDWG sequence by site-directed mutagenesis. However, the details about the roles of each amino acid residue of the SDWG sequence have not been investigated. W293 of the SDW segment, which is the residue next to the nucleophile (D292) in family 3 BGL, is very important for...
