NMR Line Shape Analysis of a Multi-state Ligand Binding Mechanism in Chitosanase [PDF]
Chitosan interaction with chitosanase was examined through analysis of spectral line shapes in the NMR HSQC titration experiments. We established that the substrate, chitosan hexamer, binds to the enzyme through the three-state induced-fit mechanism with
