Basic structural elements
|
Like many proteins, the of adenylate kinase is consists of two elements: alpha-helices (shown in light green) and beta-sheets (shown in dark green). There are two ; the alpha-helices are highlighted in light green and the beta-sheets are highlighted in dark green. The are shown in yellow. They may be parallel or anti-parallel.
Residues
The protein consists of and residues, highlighted in gray and red, respectively.
Water Accessibility
The protein has certain (water shown in blue, the enzyme shown in white), since water can't interact with all of it. Water also interacts with some of the . Waters are and aren't places.
Ligand
Some . Although not all of the highlighted residues contact the ligand, most of them do. Cationic side chains are shown in blue, whereas anionic side chains are shown in red. What kind of side chains interact with non-hydrolysable substrate. The are shown in green.
