Abstract excerpt
We studied the catalytic role of leucine 201 residue of the thermostable D-amino acid aminotransferase: the residue was shown crystallographically to be in the vicinity of the active site to interact with the bound pyridoxal phosphate. We replaced the leucine 201 by alanyl or tryptophanyl residue...
