Structural characterization of cassava linamarase-linamarin enzyme complex: an integrated computational approach
Lucas, Paul; Shadrack, DM; Mudogo, CN; Mtei, KM; Machunda, RL; Ntie-Kang, Fidele (Journal of Biomolecular Structure and Dynamics, 2022)Cassava linamarase is a hydrolyzing enzyme that belongs to a glycoside hydrolase family 1 (GH1). It is responsible for breaking down linamarin to toxic cyanide. The enzyme provides a defensive mechanism for plants against ...
