Abstract
The granular starch binding domain of glucoamylase 1 (EC 3.2.1.3 1,4- alpha-D-glucan glucohydrolase) binds two molecules of beta- cyclodextrin, with a dissociation constant (Kd) for the second ligand of 1.68 microM. The catalytic domain showed no interaction with beta- cyclodextrin. Beta-cyclodextrin competitively inhibited the adsorption of the binding domain onto granular starch with an inhibition constant (Ki) of 11.0 +/- 1.9 microM. The results show that beta-cyclodextrin binds to the binding domain of glucoamylase at the same site(s) as granular starch.
