Function[BUDC_KLEPN] Catalyzes the reversible reduction of (S)-acetoin to 2,3-butanediol in the presence of NADH. Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf. Publication Abstract from PubMedThe crystal structure of a ternary complex of meso-2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase with NAD+ and a competitive inhibitor, mercaptoethanol, has been determined at 1.7 A resolution by means of molecular replacement and refined to a final R-factor of 0.194. The overall structure is similar to those of the other short chain dehydrogenase/reductase enzymes. The NAD+ binding site, and the positions of catalytic residues Ser139, Tyr152, and Lys156 are also conserved. The crystal structure revealed that mercaptoethanol bound specifically to meso-2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase. Two residues around the active site, Gln140 and Gly183, forming hydrogen bonds with the inhibitor, are important but not sufficient for distinguishing stereoisomerism of a chiral substrate.
