“…SEC unexpectedly revealed that 90% of Ts RTA in solution exists as a tetramer, with only 10% adopting the dimeric form ( Figure S5 ). Other highly similar RTAs, including At RTA (4ce5, 81% identity) (Łyskowski et al, 2014 ), and RTAs from Nectria haematococca (4cmd, 78% identity) (Sayer et al, 2014 ), Exophiala xenobiotica (6fte, 70% identity) (Telzerow et al, 2019 ), and Aspergillus fumigatus (4uug, 73% identity) (Thomsen et al, 2014 ) are reported as dimers based on their crystal packing. Two thermostable BCATs, belonging to the same fold type IV as RTAs, with hexameric structures have recently been reported by Isupov et al ( 2019 ).…”
