Amylomaltase (AM; EC 2.4.1.25) belongs to the 4-α-glucanotransferase group of the α-amylase family. The enzyme can produce cycloamylose or large-ring cyclodextrin through intramolecular transglycosylation or cyclization reactions of α-1,4-glucan. Amylomaltase from the mesophilic bacterium Corynebacterium glutamicum (CgAM) contains extra residues at the N-terminus for which the three-dimensional structure is not yet known. In this study, CgAM was overexpressed and purified to homogeneity using DEAE FF and Phenyl FF columns. The purified CgAM was crystallized by the vapour-diffusion method. Preliminary X-ray data showed that the CgAM crystal diffracted to 1.7 Å resolution and belonged to space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 73.28, b = 82.61, c = 118.64 Å. To obtain the initial phases, crystals of selenomethionyl-substituted amylomaltase were produced, and multiple-wavelength anomalous dispersion phasing and structure refinement are now in progress.

D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli

D006004 Glycogen Debranching Enzyme System 1,4-alpha-D-Glucan-1,4-alpha-D-glucan 4-alpha-D-glucosyltransferase/dextrin 6 alpha-D-glucanohydrolase. An enzyme system having both 4-alpha-glucanotransferase (EC 2.4.1.25) and amylo-1,6-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.33) activities. As a transferase it transfers a segment of a 1,4-alpha-D-glucan to a new 4-position in an acceptor, which may be glucose or another 1,4-alpha-D-glucan. As a glucosidase it catalyzes the endohydrolysis of 1,6-alpha-D-glucoside linkages at points of branching in chains of 1,4-linked alpha-D-glucose residues. Amylo-1,6-glucosidase activity is deficient in glycogen storage disease type III.
