Introduction
Pyruvate kinase (a transferase, PDB 4IP7) What's it do Research about it
Structure
Pyruvate kinase is a , meaning it has four identical . This enzyme contains both and .
It has three . consists of an alpha-beta-alpha 3-layer sandwich. consists of a parallel alpha-beta barrel. consists of an anti-parallel beta-barrel.
in the backbone show the interactions within the elements of secondary structure.
of the side chains is shown. Hydrophobic side chains are grey while hydrophilic side chains are purple. You can see that the hydrophobic residues are mostly on the interior, buried within the protein, while hydrophilic are on the outside. is in contact with most of the chain except the 3 beta barrel (shown in green). When looking at the quaternary , water is present over most of the exterior except the cavity in the middle and the outer barrels in 3 (green).
