Using the Amino Acid Network to Modulate the Hydrolytic Activity of β-Glycosidases.

The active site residues in GH1 β-glycosidases are compartmentalized into 3 functional regions, involved in catalysis or binding of glycone and aglycone motifs from substrate. However, it still remains unclear how residues outside the active site modulate the enzymatic activity. To tackle this quest...
