Figure 2.
(a) Interactions of active site zinc with inh1 and inh2. BoNT F residues in the BoNT F–inh1 and BoNT F–inh2 complexes, D-Cys and D-Cys-sulfinic acid, are shown in cyan, light gray, orange and green stick model, respectively. Whereas the sulfur of D-Cys in inh1 has one interaction (2.52 Å with zinc, red label), sulfur, OD1 and OD2 of D-Cys sulfinic acid in inh2 have many interactions with the enzyme molecule (blue labels). (b) Interactions of inh1 at and near the BoNT F active site. BoNT F is shown in ribbons (sky blue) and stick model (light gray) and zinc is in sphere model (magenta), whereas inh1 is in green stick model. BoNT F and VAMP residues are labeled in black and blue, respectively. All interactions between BoNT F and VAMP are shown using dashed lines.
