dimer | the linker of the two-domain dimeric enzyme is found to be dispensable. Domains of this enzyme assemble without the linker into a conjoined tetrameric form that exhibits higher activity than the parent enzyme.The global shape and quaternary structure of the conjoined enzyme are also similar to the wild-type enzyme, as observed by their solution scattering profiles and X-ray crystallographic data. Comparison of the crystal structures of substrate-bound and unbound enzymes reveal an altogether new active-site composition and mechanism of action | Pyrococcus furiosus |
