Structure of a consensus chitin-binding domain revealed by solution NMR
Chitin-binding proteins (CBPs) are a versatile group of proteins found in almost every organism on earth. CBPs are involved in enzymatic carbohydrate degradation and also serve as templating scaffolds in the exoskeleton of crustaceans and insects. One specific chitin-binding motif found across a wide range of arthropods' exoskeletons is the "extended Rebers and Riddiford" consensus (R&R), whose mechanism of chitin binding remains unclear. Here, we report the 3D structure and molecular level... More... |
