3vuf is a 1 chain structure protein which is synthesized by the Japanese rice (Oryza sativa japonica). it’s an enzyme, more accurately a transferase. It’s a NDP-glucose--starch glucosyltransferase, which is involved in the synthesis of amylose in the rice. This enzyme is located chloroplast and in amyloplast.

The 3vuf protein is 609 amino acids long and weighs 66 476 Da.

Function

[SSG1_ORYSJ] Required for the synthesis of amylose in endosperm.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00484]

Disease

The protein 3vuf has allergenic properties, for example in mammals it can bind to Immunoglobulin E (IgE) causing an allergic response.

Structural highlights

This protein is an enzyme, which is formed from one monomer and can bind to ADP. It binds to the ADP-glucose with amino acids 97,100, 408, 413,462 and 492. This allow the formation of an hydrophobic pocket in which ADP-glucose can binds to and in which he is protected from water and hydrolyse. we can also see that 3vuf can binds sulfate. This hydrophobic cage is allowed by the beta sheets and alpha helices that the protein have.

This is a sample scene created with SAT to by Group, and another to make of the protein. You can make your own scenes on SAT starting from scratch or loading and editing one of these sample scenes.
