1.2.1.22 | by the hanging-drop, vapor-diffusion method. Serendipitous crystal structure of unliganded lactaldehyde dehydrogenase determined by multiple isomorphous replacement using anomalous scattering, at 2.2 A resolution. Crystal structure of the ternary enzyme complex with products lactate and NADH at 2.1 A resolution, and binary complex complex with NADPH at 2.7 A resolution. The ternary complex reveals that the nicotinamide ring of NADH occupies two distinct conformations, one with the ring positioned in the active site in the so-called hydrolysis conformation and another with the ring extended out of the active site into the solvent region |
