The WSGFRP motif is stabilized by glutamine of the CVQC motif and phenylalanine is exposed to the solvent. Phe-64 and Val-12 with Ala-16 and Ala-20 create a distinct hydrophobic patch that is exposed to the solvent. This patch is of functional significance that could potentially interact with the C-terminus of RNR. This hydrogen bonding network lends to the stability of the redox active site.<ref>DOI 10.1021/bi400191z</ref> | The WSGFRP motif is stabilized by glutamine of the CVQC motif and phenylalanine is exposed to the solvent.

NrdH of Mycobacterium tuberculosis
NrdH is a redox protein part of a family of redox proteins. The other proteins that maintain the redox balance of this protein are three Thioredoxin and three glutaredoxin-like proteins. Prokaryotes typically maintain redox homeostasis through low-molecular weight thiols (glutathione) and through proteins invovled in disulfide exchange (thioredoxins).
