There are many key structures one can highlight for Bap1, such as its two different sized connected domains, 8-bladed β-propeller region, active site location outside of the central cavity, and carbohydrate binding site.

When looking at the (secondary structure) of Bap1, the two different sized domains are easily seen. The larger domain of the protein is the 8-bladed β-propeller region. The smaller domain of the protein is a β-prism that is connected to the propeller region via a loop in between blade 6. When zooming in on what connects them, it is just two small strands. This makes the protein very flexible.

When looking at a space-fill view of Bap1 and colored based on hydrophobicity, one can easily identify the binding pocket that carbohydrates bind to in the β-prism. Bap1 is known for its sugar binding properties.

It is important to note that this protein did not have a catalytic triad mentioned in the paper. Instead, highlighting the <scene name='82/823093/Key_amino_acids/1'>key amino acids</scene> that are important to the function of Bap1 should be mentioned. These amino acids are Gly 344, Ala 345, Val 346, Lys 501, Asp 348, and His 500. The actual ligand was not mentioned in the paper either, but citrate was bound near the sites and can be used for important functionality of the protein. Gly 344, Ala 345, Val 346, Lys 501 all interact with citrate via hydrogen bonding. Asp 348 and His 500 interact with citrate via van der Waals interactions.

When looking at a space-fill view of Bap1 and colored based on <scene name='82/823093/Hydrophobicity/2'>hydrophobicity</scene>, one can easily identify the binding pocket that carbohydrates bind to in the β-prism. Bap1 is known for its sugar binding properties. The hydrophobic molecules are colored in dark gray. The charged molecules are colored in white. The neutral molecules are colored in dark green. Anionic polysaccharides, sugars that are negative, want their amino acid to be negative to bind to. Lysine, which makes up a large portion of the binding pocket is critical to identify when talking about the function of this protein. It is colored in orange.

The protein is colored in a light tan and the amino acids are highlighted in CPK to be able to visualize the hydrogen bonding areas.
This is a sample scene created with SAT to <scene name="/12/3456/Sample/1">color</scene> by Group, and another to make <scene name="/12/3456/Sample/2">a transparent representation</scene> of the protein. You can make your own scenes on SAT starting from scratch or loading and editing one of these sample scenes.
