Crystal Structure of Substrate-Free Form of Aldoxime Dehydratase (OxdRE)
Structural highlights
3a15 is a 4 chain structure with sequence from Rhodococcus erythropolis. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
OXD_RHOER Catalyzes the dehydration of aldoximes to their corresponding nitrile (PubMed:16233624, PubMed:19740758). Is active toward various arylalkyl- and alkyl-aldoximes, and to a lesser extent toward aryl-aldoximes (PubMed:16233624).[1][2]
