Carbohydrate binding module recognition of xyloglucan defined by polar contacts with branching xyloses and CH-Π interactions.

Abstract excerpt

Engineering of novel carbohydrate-binding proteins that can be utilized in various biochemical and biotechnical applications would benefit from a deeper understanding of the biochemical interactions that determine protein-carbohydrate specificity. In an effort to understand further the basis for specificity we present the crystal structure of the multi-specific carbohydrate-binding module (CBM) X-2 L110F bound to...
