The crystal structures of an M. thermophila glucuronoyl esterase (StGE2) and of its S213A mutant in the unliganded form and in complex with methyl 4-O-methyl-β-D-glucopyranuronate determined at 1.55, 1.90 and 2.35 Å resolution, respectively, are presented for the first time, disclosing the role of StGE2 as a potential biocatalyst.
