Structural Basis of α-Fucosidase Inhibition by Iminocyclitols with Ki Values in the Micro- to Picomolar Range |
2010/1/5 |
Two loops were found to move inward toward the  -fucosidase active site to produce a closed conformation of complexes with inhibitors with increasing Ki values from the micro- to nanomolar range. Although no further conformational changes in the two loops are observed for inhibitors with sub-nanomolar Ki values, the loops are additionally stabilized by hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions. The research was conducted at the NSRRC beamline BL13B1.
