Three-dimensional structures
The only structural representative from GH37 to date is the trehalase from Escherichia coli, which was solved using X-ray crystallography [1]. The structure revealed a (α/α)6 barrel fold, and was placed into clan GH-G. Structures have been solved with the inhibitors validoxylamine A, 1-thiatrehazolin and a casuarine analogue [1, 2].
