2010 journal article

N-terminal Fusion of a Hyperthermophilic Chitin-Binding Domain to Xylose Isomerase from Thermotoga neapolitana Enhances Kinetics and Thermostability of Both Free and Immobilized Enzymes

BIOTECHNOLOGY PROGRESS, 26(4), 993–1000.

By: J. Harris n, K. Epting n & R. Kelly n 

author keywords: xylose isomerase; hyperthermophile; Thermotoga neapolitana; chitin-binding domain
MeSH headings : Aldose-Ketose Isomerases / genetics; Aldose-Ketose Isomerases / metabolism; Chitin / metabolism; Enzyme Stability; Enzymes, Immobilized / genetics; Enzymes, Immobilized / metabolism; Kinetics; Protein Binding; Protein Structure, Tertiary / genetics; Protein Structure, Tertiary / physiology; Recombinant Proteins / genetics; Recombinant Proteins / metabolism; Thermotoga neapolitana / enzymology
TL;DR: Molecular modeling results suggest that the N‐terminal fusion impacted subunit interactions, thereby contributing to the enhanced thermostability of both the unbound and immobilized CBD‐TNXI, and played a role in modifying active site structure. (via Semantic Scholar)

2007 journal article

Biochemical analysis of Thermotoga maritima GH36 alpha-galactosidase (TmGalA) confirms the mechanistic commonality of clan GH-D glycoside hydrolases

BIOCHEMISTRY, 46(11), 3319–3330.

By: D. Comfort n, K. Bobrov  n, D. Ivanen n, K. Shabalin  n, J. Harris n, A. Kulminskaya  n, H. Brumer  n, R. Kelly n 

MeSH headings : Amino Acid Sequence; Azides / pharmacology; Catalysis; Cloning, Molecular; Hot Temperature; Hydrogen-Ion Concentration; Kinetics; Models, Molecular; Molecular Sequence Data; Mutagenesis, Site-Directed; Protein Denaturation; Sequence Alignment; Substrate Specificity; Thermotoga maritima / enzymology; Thermotoga maritima / genetics; alpha-Galactosidase / drug effects; alpha-Galactosidase / genetics; alpha-Galactosidase / metabolism
TL;DR: Results show that the biochemical characteristics of GH36 TmGalA are closely related to GH27 enzymes, confirming the mechanistic commonality of clan GH-D members, and confirm that Asp387 is the acid/base residue of Tm GalA. (via Semantic Scholar)
