Function of your protein

The function of is dephosphorylating inositol, used in inositol signaling. The substrate of the enzyme is IP3 and the product is IP2,

Biological relevance and broader implications

Important amino acids

In the protein seen in the paper there is a mutation at residue 54, causing an . The catalytic amino acids are .

Structural highlights

This protein is a mutation of 1INP, it has thirteen structural elements. The amino acids in the bind to the substrate all participate in hydrogen bonding to the substrate and ligand. The structure is , the betta sheets allow for twisting of the molecule so that the ligand better fits within the enzyme. The helices allow for hydrogen bonding throughout to stabilize the structure with assistance from metal ions; specifically magnesium ions. ^[3]

Other important features

The ligand of the protein is known as , with a PDB ID of 2IP. The cyclic structure of the ligand could possibly assist with binding the substrate, the hydrogen bonding with various amino acids allows for many interactions with the enzyme.
