4.4.1.20 | wild-type to 1.9 A resolution, space group F23. Mutants R31A and R104A, space groups F23 and C222, respectively. The architecture for GSH binding is conserved. The GSH binding site is a V-shaped cleft at each intermonomer interface in the LTC4S trimer, and nine amino acid residues directly participate in the GSH binding. Residue R30 multiply binds the carboxyl group of the gamma-glutamyl moiety, and R104 interacts with both the thiol group and the carbonyl group of the cysteinyl moiety of GSH. The side chain of R31 is flexible in the crystal structure |
