Abstract
⺠First crystal structure of monoacylglycerol lipase from bacterial species. ⺠Small angle X-ray scattering shows that the protein is a monomer in solution. ⺠A large hydrophobic channel enables access of the substrate to the active site. ⺠Molecular dynamic simulations reveal open and closed states of the cap region. ⺠The cap architecture is conserved on a structural but not on a sequence level.
