Cryocrystallographic and mechanistic studies on glycogen phosphorylase

Abstract:

Glycogen phosphorylase (GPb) regulates the degradation of glycogen to glucose-1-phosphate and catalyses the first step of the reaction. Many studies have provided insights into the essentials of the catalytic mechanism. Previous time resolved crystallographic work using heptenitol has revealed a putative phosphate binding site at the active site of phosphorylase.

Using nojirimycin tetrazole, a transition state analogue, complexed with phosphate and both T and R state GPb crystals, t...
