Abstract

The study on the structural feature of carboxypeptidase A using transition state analog inhibitors suggests that the principal substrate recognition subsite of the enzyme is a pocket-shaped cavity having a rectangular opening with effective dimensions of 3.5 Å × 7.1 Å. The principal substrate recognition subsite (S1 ′ subsite) of Carboxypeptidase A is a pocket-shaped cavity having a rectangular opening with effective dimensions of 3.5 Å × 7.1 Å.
