Crystal structure of endo-β-1,6-galactanase from Streptomyces avermitilis. [PDF]
Acta Crystallogr D Struct BiolThe crystal structure of S. avermitilis endo‐β‐1,6‐galactanase belonging to GH30 subfamily 5 reveals the first structural framework for endo‐β‐1,6‐galactanase. The β‐1,6‐galactobiose‐bound complex identifies the catalytic subsites and a distal secondary sugar‐binding site, providing insight into β‐1,6‐galactan recognition.Endo‐β‐1,6‐galactanases ...
