Figure 2.
Fig. 2. Stereo view of the three-dimensional structure of the Tkpro:SA-subtilisin complex. The entire structure of the Tkpro:SA-subtilisin complex (PDB code: 2Z30) (a) and the structure around Glu201 (b) are shown. Tkpro and SA-subtilisin are colored pink and lime green, respectively. The Ca^2+ ions are shown in cyan spheres. For the entire structure, two acidic residues (Glu61 and Asp63), six C-terminal residues of Tkpro (His64-Leu69), and Glu201 are indicated by stick models. Two active-site residues (Asp115 and His153) and Ala324, which is substituted for the active-site serine residue, are indicated by yellow stick models. In these stick models, the oxygen and nitrogen atoms are colored red and blue, respectively. Glu61/Asp63-mediated hydrogen bonds are shown by orange broken lines. N and C represent the N- and C-termini, respectively. For the structure around Glu201, Glu201, Tyr31, and Phe33-Pro37 are indicated by stick models, in which the oxygen and nitrogen atoms are colored red and blue, respectively. Glu201-mediated hydrogen bonds are shown by orange broken lines.
