Figure 2. A: Ribbon diagram of a superposition of 18204011 (mouse) and quinone oxidoreductase from E. coli (PDB: 1qor) grey. The structures were superimposed on their nucleotide-binding domains. The NADPH molecule bound to quinone oxidoreductase is shown in cpk mode. B: Close up view of the active site. The NADPH molecule and the sulfate bound to the active site of quinone oxidoreductase are shown in ball and stick. The active site tyrosine (Y52) as observed in quinone oxidoreductase from E. coli and its potential counterpart (Y64) in 18204011 (the Y64 side-chain has been modeled here due to disorder in the crystal structure) are shown in ball and stick.
