Summary
Structures determined by x-ray diffraction have been refined at 2.4–2.6Å for the native enzyme, the external aldimine formed with α-methylaspartate and the ketimine species formed with L-glutamate. These results have been correlated with those of microspectrophotometry on crystals and are discussed in relationship to UV-visible spectra and 19F NMR spectra in solut ions.
