Figure 3.
Fig. 3. Stereo view of the active site of BeF[ - ]-CheY. Carbon, nitrogen, oxygen beryllofluoride, and manganese atoms are colored gray, dark blue, red, yellow, and green, respectively. a, omit map contoured at 3.0 covering Asp12, Asp13, BeF[ - ]-Asp57, Thr87, Lys109, and two water molecules. This map was calculated with the occupancies for these residues set to zero. For clarity, the density for manganese is not shown. b, ball-and-stick diagram of the BeF[ - ]-activated CheY active site. Dashed lines and numbers denote active site interactions defined in Table II. c, stereo view of active site residues for BeF[ - ]-CheY(Mn2+) (blue), phosphorylated FixJr(no metal) (lime), and phosphorylated Spo0A^r(Ca^2+) (copper). Mn2+ and Ca^2+ are shown as red and green balls, respectively. Residue numbers are based on E. coli CheY. For clarity, phosphono-CheY was not included.
