H, C, and N backbone and sidechain resonance assignments of a monomeric variant of E. coli deoxyribose-5-phosphate aldolase.

Deoxyribose-5-phosphate aldolase (DERA) catalyses the reversible conversion of 2-deoxyribose-5-phosphate (dR5P) into glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P) and acetaldehyde. For industrial applications, this enzyme is used in organic synthesis for aldol reactions between acetaldehyde as a donor and a wide range of aldehydes as acceptors. Here, we present a near complete set of sequence-specific H, C and N resonance assignments of a 28 kDa monomeric variant of the Escherichia coli DERA.
