| Research Abstract |
Carbonyl sulfide is an atmospheric trace gas leading to sulfate aerosol formation, thereby participating in the global radiation balance and ozone chemistry. In this study, the crystal structure of carbonyl sulfide hydrolase (COSase) from Thiobacillus thioparus strain THI115 was determined to clarify its substrate recognition mechanism. Althoughthe overall structure including the catalytic site resembles those of the β-classcarbonic anhydrases, the α5 helix of COSase narrows its substrate pathway, which couldbe responsible for the substrate specificity.
