Introduction

This is , an enzyme in the glycolytic pathway. It is a dimer, but can function as a . It catalyzes the reaction of D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate to glycerone phosphate. The ligand that binds to it is called 2-Phosphoglycolic acid (PGA).

3D Structure

The contains alpha helices (gold) and beta sheets (purple). Overall, it forms a beta barrel motif.

was not working.

Residues

Pictured in yellow are the . The are pictured in green.

Solvent Accessibility

are pictured in dark blue. They are mostly located between the beta sheets and alpha helices, in a diagonal line, angled towards the connection point between the two monomers.

Ligand Interaction Site

The ligand---- with the molecule at the location pictured. The that are 4 Å or less from the ligand, are pictured in orange.
