| Abstract | The crystal structure of the major component of the Vipera ammodytes ammodytes venomic, a flavotoxin, member of the L-amino acid oxidase (LAAO) family, has been determined and refined at 2.6 Å resolution. The asymmetric unit consists of four molecules, each bound to oxidized FAD, representing a dimer of dimers. The binding of four Zn2+ ions stabilizes the enzymatically active quaternary structure and is considered important for the biological activity of LAAO and other flavoproteins. Each monomer consists of three domains with a cofactor bound between the FAD and substrate binding domains, and a solvent exposed glycosylation site which is considered crucial for the toxicity. Comparison of LAAO structures in the absence and presence of a substrate indicates conformational changes in the dynamic active site. The active site H-bond network involving the triad Lys326–Water–N5 of FAD is formed only upon substrate binding, and results in the increased mobility of the isoalloxazine system. Details of the catalytic transformation of amino acid substrates are discussed. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
