Crystallization (Comment) Organism
hanging-drop vapour diffusion method. The crystal of the enzyme–ligand complex is prepared from the truncated protein lacking five amino acid residues from both the N- and C-terminal ends.

cellulose + H2O the substrate position is fixed by the alignment of one cellobiose unit between the two aromatic amino acid residues at subsites +1 and +2. During the enzyme reaction, the glucose structure of cellulose substrates is distorted at subsite -1, and the beta-1,4-glucoside bond between glucose moieties is twisted between subsites -1 and +1. Subsite -2 specifically recognizes the glucose residue, but recognition by subsites +1 and +2 is loose during the enzyme reaction. Analysis of the enzyme-substrate structure suggests that an incoming water molecule, essential for hydrolysis during the retention process, might be introduced to the cleavage position after the cellobiose product at subsites +1 and +2 is released from the active site Pyrococcus horikoshii cellobiose + ?
