-
- Enzyme: Fructose biphosphate aldolase
- Substrate: fructose-1,6-biphosphate
- Products: glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and dihydroxiacetone-phosphate.
-
- This shows secondary structures in Fructose biphosphate aldolase molecule.
- This shows the polypeptide chain skeleton and amino acids R groups.
- The polypeptide chain of this enzyme consist of .
- Now, we are going to to highligth the enzyme
- Active site is surrounded by
- , i.e., fructose-1,6-biphosphate. fits into active site.
- In this , fit between active site and substrate is best seen.
- Zoom out to see a whole view.
- All models we have analyzed show a of fructose biphosphate aldolase. Really, this enzyme is a oligomeric protein composed of four subunits that perform a .
