Active-site structures of D383A in complex with raffinose. The structures of D383A in complexes with raffinose (magenta), with stachyose (green) and with hydrolyzed raffinose, i.e. galactose and sucrose (cyan), in the catalytic binding pocket shown with the electrostatic surface indicate that the wider binding-site pocket of the alkaline α-galactosidase AtAkαGal3 provides a new secondary product-binding site to stabilize the sucrose moiety (cyan).
