Figure 2. Arginase−ABH complex. a, Omit electron density map of ABH in the arginase active site averaged over the two monomers in the asymmetric unit and averaged over the two twin domains A and B as described in the text. The map is contoured at 7.7 and selected active site residues are indicated. Atoms are color-coded as follows: C = yellow, O = red, N = blue, B = pale green; water molecules appear as red spheres. This figure was generated with BOBSCRIPT and Raster3D^34, ^35. b, Summary of arginase−ABH interactions; manganese coordination interactions are designated by green dashed lines, and hydrogen bonds are indicated by black dashed lines. c, Stabilization of the tetrahedral intermediate (and flanking transition states) in the arginase mechanism based on the binding mode of ABH.
