The crystal structures of a first fungal glycoside hydrolase family 5 β-mannosidase from Rhizomucor miehei (RmMan5B) and of its inactive E202A mutant in complex with mannobiose, mannotriose and mannosyl-fructose are presented. Structural analyses reveal the structural basis of substrates binding.

The crystal structure of NleC is reported at 1.55 Å resolution. In conjunction with biochemical analyses, the structure reveals that NleC is a member of the zincin zinc protease family and that the configuration of the NleC active site resembles that of the metzincin clan of metallopeptidases.

In this study, crystal structures of the E. coli Mre11 homologue SbcD and its Mn2+ complex are reported and an ssDNA-binding model is proposed for SbcD that differs from those of other Mre11 proteins, providing insight into the catalytic mechanism of the repair of DNA double-strand breaks by the Mre11 complex.

A novel and simple protein crystallization method called the cross-diffusion microbatch method is presented. This method can dramatically increase the number of crystallization conditions and is a potentially useful technique in practical protein crystallization screening.
