Abstract excerpt
The tryptophan synthase (TS) bienzyme complexes found in bacteria, yeasts, and molds are pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP)-requiring enzymes that synthesize l-Trp. In the TS catalytic cycle, switching between the open and closed states of the α- and β-subunits via allosteric interactions is key to the efficient conversion of 3-indole-d-glycerol-3'-phosphate and l-Ser to l-Trp. In this process, the roles played by...
