The crystal structure of the S189D+A226G rat chymotrypsin-B mutant has, been determined at 2.2 A resolution. This mutant is the most trypsin-like, mutant so far in the line of chymotrypsin-to-trypsin conversions, aiming, for a more complete understanding of the structural basis of substrate, specificity in pancreatic serine proteases. A226G caused significant, rearrangements relative to S189D chymotrypsin, allowing an internal, conformation of Asp189 which is close to that in trypsin. Serious, distortions remain, however, in the activation domain, including, zymogen-like features. The pH-profile of activity suggests that the, conformation of the S1-site of the mutant is influenced also by the P1, residue of the substrate.
