1 | On the basis of the geometry around the cysteine binding site, we are able to suggest a mechanism for the O-acetylation of serine by SAT. | Serine | streptothricin acetyltransferase | Escherichia coli |
2 | Serine acetyltransferase (SAT) catalyzes the first step of cysteine synthesis in microorganisms and higher plants. | Cysteine | streptothricin acetyltransferase | Escherichia coli |
3 | Here we present the 2.2 A crystal structure of SAT from Escherichia coli, which is a dimer of trimers, in complex with cysteine. | Cysteine | streptothricin acetyltransferase | Escherichia coli |
4 | This structure shows the mechanism by which cysteine inhibits SAT activity and thus controls its own synthesis. | Cysteine | streptothricin acetyltransferase | Escherichia coli |
5 | On the basis of the geometry around the cysteine binding site, we are able to suggest a mechanism for the O-acetylation of serine by SAT. | Cysteine | streptothricin acetyltransferase | Escherichia coli |
