==Overview==
==Overview==
Enzymatic and non-enzymatic iodination of the amino acid tyrosine is a, well known phenomenon. The iodination technique has been widely used for, labeling proteins. Using high-resolution X-ray crystallographic, techniques, the chemical and three-dimensional structures of iodotyrosines, formed by non-enzymatic incorporation of I atoms into tyrosine residues of, a crystalline protein are described. Acetylxylan esterase (AXE II; 207, amino-acid residues) from Penicillium purpurogenum has substrate, specificities towards acetate esters of D-xylopyranose residues in xylan, and belongs to a new class of alpha/beta hydrolases. The crystals of the, enzyme are highly ordered, tightly packed and diffract to better than, sub-angstrom resolution at 85 K. The iodination technique has been, utilized to prepare an isomorphous derivative of the AXE II crystal. The, structure of the enzyme determined at 1.10 A resolution exclusively by, normal and anomalous scattering from I atoms, along with the structure of, the iodinated complex at 1.80 A resolution, demonstrate the formation of, covalent bonds between I atoms and C atoms at ortho positions to the, hydroxyl groups of two tyrosyl moieties, yielding iodotyrosines.
