Interaction between trehalose and MTHase from Sulfolobus solfataricus studied by theoretical computation and site-directed mutagenesis.

Maltooligosyltrehalose trehalohydrolase (MTHase) catalyzes the release of trehalose by cleaving the α-1,4-glucosidic linkage next to the α-1,1-linked terminal disaccharide of maltooligosyltrehalose. Computer simulation using the hydrogen bond analysis, free energy decomposition, and computational al...
