3D Structures of transaldolase
Updated on 16-October-2017
FunctionTransaldolase (TAL) is part of the pentose phosphate pathway. It catalyzes the transformation of sedoheptulose 7-phosphate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate to erythrose 4-phosphate and fructose 6-phosphate[1]. DiseaseTAL deficiency influences mitochondrial homeostasis, Ca+2 fluxing and apoptosis[2]. Structural highlightsTAL overall structure is of a TIM barrel (Alpha Helices, Beta Strands , Loops , Turns). The active site contains a Schiff-base-bound phosphosugar at Lys135[3]. Water molecules shown as red spheres. Cl coordination site.
