Function of your protein
You can see the two-part portion of the protein. The protein has been made somewhat so you can see the substrate within the ligand.
The Chorismate Dehydratatase MqnA is an enzyme that acts upon chorismate, a biochemical intermediate in plants and microorganisms. On the futalosine pathway, it converts chorismate to EPB by removing water. MqnA is the only known chorismate dehydratase.
The example we are showing is from Streptomyces coelicolor. The other mutant MqnA are from Escherichia coli.
Biological relevance and broader implications
Important amino acids
These are the important within the ligand.
Structural highlights
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.
