Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Method: X-ray diffraction, Resolution 2.39Å Ligands: CO3, D22 Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function CMAS2_MYCTU Catalyzes the formation of trans cyclopropanated ketomycolate or methoxymycolate through the conversion of a double bond to a cyclopropane ring at the proximal position of an oxygenated mycolic acid via the transfer of a methylene group from S-adenosyl-L-methionine. In the absence of MmaA2, CmaA2 has a non-specific cis-cyclopropanating activity and is able to catalyze the conversion of a double bond to a cis cyclopropane ring at the distal position of an alpha mycolic acid. Cyclopropanated mycolic acids are key factors participating in cell envelope permeability, host immunomodulation and persistence. Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.
