Structural highlights
This scene displays the catalytic triad which are the amino acids His-208, Glu-204, and Glu-207. The authors explained within the paper that other amino acids may play a role in the triad as well. They were unsure but those three were the most accurate. These amino acids play an important role in catalysis for the protein.
This scene displays the spacefill view of Tetrahydroprotoberbine. This view allows viewers to see the different colored elements such as carbon(grey), nitrogen(blue), and oxygen(red).
