Figure 5
The activity of HpyMqnB and its described mutants towards 6-amino-6-deoxyfutalosine. The 1H NMR spectra after 5 min (a) show complete hydrolysis for the wild-type enzyme, resulting in two peaks (representing the α-anomer and the β-anomer). However, the mutants show no (D199A and E14A) or highly reduced (D199N and E14Q) activity even after 4 h (b). |
