Succinyl-Coa synthetase catalyzes the reversible reaction of succinyl-CoA + NDP + Pi <-> succinate + CoA + NTP (where N is either adenosine or guanosine.

Structure

Succinyl-CoA synthetase is a tetramer with an active site on each dimer. This can be seen in the Jmol representation (the PDB code is 1CQJ). The two dimers are denoted alpha and beta with a Histidine residue (His 246 alpha) being the primary catalysis through a phosphorylated histidine intermediate.



Trypsin-BPTI complex

The trypsin backbone is shown in pink and the trypsin inhibitor, BPTI, in yellow (PDB code 2ptc). The residues [Ser195-His57-Asp102-Ser214] are shown in green, the disulfide bond between residues 14-38 is shown in yellow and the Lys 15 sidechain at the specificity site in pink.
