General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
evolution | the enzyme belongs to the the family of phospholipases D, PLD | Loxosceles laeta |
additional information | highly conserved amino acids of the glycerophosphoryl diester phosphodiesterase domain of the recombinant enzyme interact with the substrate sphingomyelin and are involved in substrate recognition. Residues D259 and S262 form part of the catalytic pocket, and they have an important role in substrate recognition and maintenance of the electronegative net charge which sustains the interaction with sphingomyelin | Loxosceles laeta |
