Structural dynamics of the transaminase active site revealed by the crystal structure of a co-factor free omega-transaminase from Vibrio fluvialis JS17

Abstract Omega (ω)-transaminase catalyzes the transfer of an amino group from a non-α position amino acid, or an amine compound with no carboxylic group, to an amino acceptor, and has been studied intensively because of its high potential utility in industry and pharmatheutics. The ω-transaminase fr...
