| + | Shown to the left is the hydrophobic binding pocket of Carboxypeptidase A in ''B. taurus'' in relation to the whole molecule. It is one of the molecule's most important structural features. The <scene name='69/694223/Hydrophobic_binding_pocket_2/2'>hydrophobic binding pocket</scene> is also isolated in the 3D applet to the right. This binding pocket is the site at which C-terminal side chain of the substrate binds. It is formed by amino acid residues I243, I247, A250, G252, G253, S254 and I255. | ||
| - | + | Nearby, there is also Y198 which serves as the recognition site for the sidechain next to the C-terminal residue. | |
