is an enzyme used for catalyzing the conversion of 2-phosphoglycerate to phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP)in glycolysis.

. This shows the alpha-helices in blue, and the beta-sheets in orange, as well as the non-repetitive structure in white

has lots of cool alpha-helices

is displayed here in red.

Because the beta-sheets are parallel, the H-bonds are not direct or straight, and therefore not as strong.

are shown in gray. These residues prefer little to no contact with water, and so typically hide in the interior of the protein

are shown in purple. These residues prefer contact with water, and so typically appear on the surface of the protein

surrounding Enolase only reacts with the hydrophilic residues of the protein and forces the hydrophobic residues into the interior to minimize contact with them and so water can increase its own entropy.

are displayed in yellow. The majority of the residues binding with the Ligand include Serine, Glutamic acid, and Aspartic acid.

are shown here in lime green. These are the residues of the enzyme's active site that are reported to also interact with the non-hydrolysable substrate.
