Figure 1.
Figure 1. (a) Ribbon representation of the structure of PfTIM monomer. Trp11 (blue) and Trp168 (green) are shown in sticks. (b) and (c) Hydrogen bonding interactions of the N-terminal hinge residues, Pro166, Leu167 and Trp168 in the open and closed forms of loop6, respectively. The Figures were generated using MOLSCRIPT39 and rendered using Raster3D.40 (d) Chemical structures of the substrates and various ligands of TIM; dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (GAP), 2-phosphoglycolate (PGA), 2-phosphoglycerate (2PG), glycerol-3-phosphate (G-3P) and glycerol-2-phosphate (G-2P).
