In this paper, the positions of Mg ions and xylitol in 1BXB were established by structure analysis, molecular docking and computing. The Complex of 1BXB with xylitol was modeled and analyzed. Comparing the structure of 1BXB complex with 1S5N, it was found that the overall structure of them showed a high similarity. The residues around xylitol were highly conserved in xylose isomerase, and the orientation and positions of xylitol were very similar in both structures. The coordination bonds formed between Mg1 and O2 or O4 of xylitol stabilized the conformation of xylitol at the active site of 1BXB.展开更多
