Background: Glutathione transferases (GSTs) constitute a family of isoenzymes that catalyze the conjugation of the tripeptide glutathione with a wide variety of hydrophobic compounds bearing an electrophilic functional group. Recently, a number of X-ray structures have been reported which have defined both the glutathione- and the substrate-binding sites in these enzymes. The structure of the glutathione-free...
Arg15 is a conserved active-site residue in class Alpha glutathione transferases. X-ray diffraction studies of human glutathione transferase A1-1 have shown that N o of this amino acid residue is adjacent to the sulfur atom of a glutathione derivative bound to the active site, suggesting the presence of a hydrogen bond. The phenolic hydroxyl group of Tyr9 also forms a hydrogen bond to the...
Background: Streptococcal protein G comprises two or three domains that bind to the constant Fc region of most mammalian immunoglobulin Gs (IgGs). Protein G is functionally related to staphylococcal protein A, with which it shares neither sequence nor structural homology.Results To understand the competitive binding of these two proteins to the Fc region, the crystal structure of a single Ig-binding...
