This enzyme is a <scene name='93/934002/Homodimer/1'>homodimer</scene>, chains A and B are two asymmetrical monomers that contain both <scene name='93/934002/Secondary_structure/1'>alpha helices and beta sheets</scene>. The chains are nearly identical and contain 12 alpha helices and 12 beta sheets. The outer surface is framed by an antiparallel beta-sheet that is composed of β6, β4,β1, and β12 followed along with the β5 strand. Other antiparallel beta-sheets include the formation of β2, β3, β7, β8 and β9, β11, and β10 strands. These two beta-sheets alongside α1, α8, α9, α10, α11, and α12 helices form the floor of the enzyme as well as a large cleft of the substrate-binding sites. The upper domain of the site is formed of α2, α3, α4, α5, α6, and α7 helices and β5, β6, β4, β1, β12.There is a resemblance to homologous decarboxylases seen in the GHMP kinases superfamily. The <scene name='93/934002/Space-filling_view/1'>space-filling view</scene> of the protein shows the ligand covered by the enzyme with the polar end sticking out of the cavity. | This enzyme is a <scene name='93/934002/Homodimer/1'>homodimer</scene>, chains A and B are two asymmetrical monomers that contain both <scene name='93/934002/Secondary_structure/1'>alpha helices and beta sheets</scene>.
