Abstract excerpt
Peptidyl-prolyl isomerase (PPIase) activity is exhibited by many proteins belonging to the PPIase family. However, the catalytic mechanism of this activity remains to be completely elucidated. Here, we selected human FK506-binding protein 12 (FKBP12) as the model PPIase and investigated the nature of amino acid residues essential for the activity. The crystal structures of several complexes of PPIase with short...
