expression in Escherichia coli Leishmania major

Crystallization (Commentary)

Crystallization (Comment) Organism
apo-enzyme and in complex with orotate and with fumarate, to 2.0 A, 2.5 A and 1.9 A resolution, respectively. Both orotate and fumarate bind to the same active site and exploit similar interactions, consistent with a ping-pong mechanism. Rearrangements in the conformation of the catalytic loop have direct influence on the dimeric interface Leishmania major
