Domain movement is sometimes essential for substrate recognition by an enzyme. X-ray crystallography of aminotransferase with a series of aliphatic substrates showed that the domain movement of aspartate aminotransferase was changed dramatically from an open to a closed form by the addition of only one CH(2) to the side chain of the C4 substrate CH(3)(CH(2))C((alpha))H(NH(3)(+))COO(-) ...
