X-RAY CRYSTALLOGRAPHIC STRUCTURE OF A PAPAIN-LEUPEPTIN COMPLEX
Overview
The three-dimensional structure of the papain-leupeptin complex has been, determined by X-ray crystallography to a resolution of 2.1 A (overall, R-factor = 19.8%). The structure indicates that: (i) leupeptin contacts, the S subsites of the papain active site and not the S' subsites; (ii) the, 'carbonyl' carbon atom of the inhibitor is covalently bound by the Cys-25, sulphur atom of papain and is tetrahedrally coordinated; (iii) the, 'carbonyl' oxygen atom of the inhibitor faces the oxyanion hole and makes, hydrogen bond contacts with Gln-19 and Cys-25.
