Cryo-EM and directed evolution reveal how Arabidopsis nitrilase specificity is influenced by its quaternary structure

Nitrilases are helical enzymes that convert nitriles to acids and/or amides. All plants have a nitrilase 4 homolog specific for ß-cyanoalanine, while in some plants neofunctionalization has produced nitrilases with altered specificity. Plant nitrilase substrate size and specificity correlate with he...
