Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase
Introduction and Basic Structure
|
Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, or more commonly called, , is a tetrahedral protein. The image depicts this protein with the C terminus in blue and the N terminus in red. G-3-P is an enzyme used in glycolysis to produce NADH through a mechanism with phosphate and NAD+, which binds to the ligand binding site of G-3-P. The has both alpha helices (green) and beta sheets (purple).
Bonding
The are colored in red. Based on the amount of the thin red lines, it is made clear that there are many hydrogen bonds. However, there are no within the structure, or they would have been highlighted in green. The only special binding in the G-3-P enzyme is the hydrogen bonding. Looking at the structure with the highlights the parallel structure of the beta sheets that is made obvious by the hydrogen bonding.
Residues
The of G-3-P are colored teal. The are shown in blue.
