Figure 5. Structures of Bb^C428-C435 Inhibitor Complexes(A) Superposition of the active sites of Bb^C428-C435 (gold) and Bb^C428-C435-BCX583 (light green) crystal structures. The inhibitor (BCX583) covalently linked to Ser^195 is held in position by hydrogen bonding to Asp^715(226) through a water molecule (lavender). The L2 loop (red) is seen only in the inhibitor complex structure.(B) Comparison of the active sites of Bb^C428-C435-DIP and Bb^C428-C435. The backbone of the inhibitor-bound Bb^C428-C435 is shown in light green color, while the inhibitor-free Bb^C428-C435 is shown in gold color. Covalently bound DIP molecule points its phosphoryl oxygen into the putative oxyanion hole (marked with black star) and forces it to acquire a tight β turn from a zymogen-like 3[10] helix (transparent red color) conformation.(C) Stereo close-up of the superposition of the 670(191)-674(194) segment of Bb^C428-C435 (gold) and Bb^C428-C435-DIP complex (light green). The orientational difference of carbonyl oxygen of the residue 671(192) is indicated in the boxed area.
