Abstract

Alcohol dehydrogenases (ADH) (EC 1.1.1.1) that belong to dehydrogenase enzymes found in many organisms carry out the interconversion of alcohols and aldehydes or ketones using nicotinamide cofactor (NAD+ or NADH). Alcohol dehydrogenase from Bacillus thuringiensis serovar israelensis (BtADH) was cloned, expressed, and characterized in our previous study. This study provides the detailed comprehensive characterization of BtADH protein by using in silico tools to estimate physicochemical properties, structural characteristics, and motif patterns consisting of secondary structure prediction and functional analysis. The prediction of the secondary structure of BtADH protein was carried out by the PSIPRED protein analysis workbench and defining functional sites of BtADH was determined by InterProScan data resource. Motif scan analysis of BtADH was conducted in different databases by using the MyHits tool.
