overproduced as an independent monofunctional activity in Escherichia coli, FasAB-Met23 Pneumocystis carinii

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
D39E FasA domain mutant D39E and FasB domain mutant G175A have no detectable activity of dihydroneopterin aldolase. The FasA domain mutants, G53A and Q63N and the FasB domain mutant Q185N, show approximately 11-fold, 16-fold and 24-fold decrease, respectively, in specific activity compared to wild-type FasAB-Met23. The activity of the FasB domain mutant D161E is similar to that of wild-type enzyme. The two mutant enzymes K96R and K218R have levels of activity comparable to wild-type enzyme Pneumocystis carinii
