Abstract

1. Structure of E. coli transketolase (TK) using yeast tranketolase co-ordinates. 2. Refinement of E. coli TK structure. Extension of resolution of data using Synchrotron radiation. 3. Crystallisation of E. coli TK with substrates of interest for biotransformation. 4. Crystallisation and structure determination of mutants and redesigned enzyme.
