General Structure

Specificity

is made up of polar interactions from K89 and S380 and hydrophobic interactions from G90, V377 and A163. The last three residues that make this interaction are highly conserved among amino acid dehydrogenases. ^[1] The polar residues make specific contacts with the glutamine substrate.
