The nAGE10 monomer is folds as a (α/α)<sub>6</sub>-barrel in a manner similar to the previously published AGE structures. It is deposited in the PDB as 6F04. |
The previously reported dimer organization, which involved the ג€backsג€ of the monomers, could not be found within the nAGE10 crystal. However, a ג€front-to-frontג€ dimer generated by symmetry is present in all AGE structures with better parameters than the back-to-back organization. | The previously reported dimer organization, which involved the ג€backsג€ of the monomers, could not be found within the nAGE10 crystal.

The new AGE dimer places the putative ATP binding site(s) at the interface between the monomers with consequences regarding its role in AGE activity. | The new AGE dimer places the putative ATP binding site(s) at the interface between the monomers with consequences regarding its role in AGE activity. |
