title: Prediction and Fourier-transform infrared-spectroscopy estimation of the secondary structure of a recombinant beta-glucosidase from Streptomyces sp. (ATCC 11238).
abstract: The secondary structure of a recombinant beta-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.21) from Streptomyces sp. (ATCC 11238) has been predicted by computer algorithms and also estimated by Fourier-transform IR spectroscopy. From curve fitting of the deconvoluted IR spectra, the most probable distribution of the secondary-structural classes appears to be about 34% alpha-helix, 30% beta-sheet, 25% reverse turns and 11% non-ordered structures. These data showed a good agreement with data from computer prediction (35% alpha-helix, 23% beta-sheet, 31% reverse turns and 11% non-ordered structures).
