The results are explained using the example of the dimer of BH3NH3.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Indian</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1.085</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rane, Ashwini S.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Joshi, Rakesh S.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Giri, Ashok P.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Molecular determinant for specificity: differential interaction of alpha-amylases with their proteinaceous inhibitors</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biochimica Et Biophysica Acta-General Subjects</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Active site</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">alpha-amylase</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">alpha-amylase inhibitor</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Insect</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">molecular interactions</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2020</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">DEC</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1864</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">129703</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Background: alpha-Amylase inhibitors (alpha-AIs) belong to the discrete classes, and exhibited differential specificities against alpha-amylases from various sources. Several alpha-amylases and their complexes with inhibitors at the molecular level have been studied in detail. Interestingly, some alpha-AIs depict specific and selective interactions amid different insect alpha-amylases. Scope of review: There are studies to understand evolutionary variability and functional differentiation of insect alpha-amylases and their cognate inhibitors. We have examined sequence, structural, and interaction diversity between various alpha-amylases and alpha-AIs. Based on these analyses, we are providing a potential basis for the functional differentiation among certain insect a-amylases concerning mammalian counterparts and their interactions with different proteinaceous alpha-AIs. Major conclusions: Insect alpha-amylases have conserved domain architecture with differences in length, number of disulfide bonds, and secondary structure. Furthermore, few of them exhibit variable characteristics like chloride dependent activity, the presence of N-terminal glutamine residue to protect against proteolytic degradation, and loop variations near the enzyme active site. Conformation of alpha-AI protein could be an essential factor for their specificity and binding affinities towards target alpha-amylase(s). Furthermore, variation into the enzyme binding pocket residues might contribute to differential interactions with inhibitors. General significance: Molecular insights in the interactions between insect alpha-amylases and plant alpha-AI will provide the details of mechanisms assisting the inhibitor specificity. Furthermore, this information will help to design potent and effective alpha-AIs against specific alpha-amylase.&lt;/p&gt;
