Mutational and structural studies of the active-site residues in truncated Fibrobacter succinogenes1,3-1,4-beta-D-glucanase.

Article Synopsis
- * Researchers created 12 mutant versions of the Fibrobacter succinogenes enzyme by altering key residues, primarily observing that changing Gln70 significantly decreased the enzyme's catalytic efficiency.
- * Structural analysis of one mutant showed a slight positional shift in a loop region without altering the enzyme's core structure, underscoring the importance of certain conserved residues for catalytic activity.
