Figure 5. Stereo diagrams showing the coordination of the
binuclear metal center of creatininase. The distances from the
metal ions to the ligands of the binuclear metal center of
creatininase and those from the water molecules to its ligands
are shown (in Å). (a) The Mn-activated creatininase. The
Mn1 has a square-pyramidal geometry, whereas the Zn2 is revealed
as having ordered tetrahedral geometry. (b) Native creatininase.
The Zn1 has distorted tetrahedral geometry, whereas the Zn2 has
ordered tetrahedral geometry.
