The enzyme has <scene name='57/570585/Two_domains/1'>two domains</scene>, with the active site found in the interdomain cleft. There is a substantial structural change upon substrate binding, resulting in a <scene name='57/570585/Closed_formation/1'>closed formation</scene>. Glyphosate (also known as Roundup) occupies the binding site of the second substrate, phosphoenol pyruvate.
