Figure 5.
Figure 5. The active site of DpnM showing the binding of AdoMet and the proposed binding mode of the target adenine in DNA. Atoms are shown in standard colors: C, black; N, blue; O, red (except water O, white); P, purple; S, yellow. The bonds are color coded: AdoMet, orange; adenylate residue of DNA, deep blue; protein, green. Dashed lines indicate hydrogen bonds. For Leu49, Phe43, Phe63 and Phe178, only mainchain atoms are shown; for Asp194 and Trp17, only terminal parts of the sidechain are indicated. Not all contacts are shown. (The figure was prepared using the program MOLSCRIPT [64].)
