Crystallization (Commentary)

Crystallization (Comment) Organism
structures of substrate complex solved at 1.8- and 2.1 A resolution and of the substrate-free form at 1.55 A resolution. The overall folding reveals an alpha/beta/alpha-sandwich with similarity to the structure of phycocyanobilin:ferredoxin oxidoreductase. The substrate-binding site is located between the central beta-sheet and C-terminal alpha-helices. The substrate binding pocket shows a high flexibility. The substrate is either in a planar porphyrin-like conformation or in a helical conformation and is coordinated by a conserved aspartate/asparagine pair from the beta-sheet side. From the alpha-helix side, a conserved highlyflexible aspartate/proline pair is involved in substrate binding and presumably catalysis Prochlorococcus phage P-SSM2
