Figure 5. Standard view from the Pl substrate towards the active site of the Pl enzyme in complex with SAK (shown as a solid surface). Coloring of the Pl enzyme is made according to the electrostatic potential. a, Intact Pg activation loop (Lys 10(557)−Val 21(567)) as modeled on residues Lys 10(557) and Cys 20(566) of the cleaved substrate and on the tripeptidyl moiety bound to the Pl enzyme. b, Cleaved Pg activation loop as seen in the crystal structure. Only the N- and the C-terminal ends of the cleaved Pl substrate (Lys 10(557)−Gly 14(560) and Val 16(562)-Val 21(567)) are shown. Figure produced with GRASP^30.
