- | Crystal structures of InhA reveal a <scene name='69/694241/Homotetramer_subunits_labeled/1'>homotetramer</scene> with separate ligand binding sites in each subunit. Each <scene name='69/694241/Monomer_subunit_no_ligands/1'>monomer</scene> subunit features a single domain with a central core that supports a NADH binding site. The alpha6 and alpha7 helices of the monomer form one side of the fatty acyl substrate binding crevice of InhA. Within this binding crevice, many hydrophobic side chains from the amino acids involved in forming the substrate binding loop, <scene name='69/694241/Monomer_subunit_196_219/1'> residues 196-219</scene>, interact with the substrates. One side of this cavity is open and exposed to solvent, which allows the substrates to access the binding pocket of this enzyme. The size of the substrate binding loop is a primary determinant of the ability of InhA to distinguish between shorter and longer substrates and provide specificity for the enoyl-ACP reductase reaction. | + | Crystal structures of InhA reveal a <scene name='69/694241/Homotetramer_subunits_labeled/1'>homotetramer</scene> with separate ligand binding sites in each subunit.
