Abstract

The structure of subtilisin BPN' at a resolution of 2.5 Å reveals an interesting active-site hydrogen-bond network involving the side chains of Asp 32, Ser 33, His 64, and reactive Ser 221. This network becomes of even greater interest when it is compared with the corresponding region in another serine protease, α-chymotrypsin. Although the two enzymes have entirely different three-dimensional structures, their active-site regions are remarkably similar.
