Candida rugosa lipase (1trh, 1lpm).

Drag the structure with the mouse to rotate

For an introduction to the structure and function of lipase, please see the article Lipase. This Lipase lid morph article is a supplement to the main article on Lipase.

Candida rugosa lipase (triacylglycerol hydrolase) has been observed in two conformations, with the "lid" closed (1trh) or open (1lpm)[1]. A [2] shows the lid opening and closing.

When open, substrate can access the catalytic triad, Ser209, Glu341, and His449[1]
