Figure 3.
Fig. 3. Ribbon structure of the KAS I dimer as viewed perpendicular to the two-fold axis. Helices and strands are red and blue respectively in the subunit on the right and pink and light blue in the subunit on the left. Active site residues Cys-163, His-298, and His-333 are shown in ball and stick representation. The site on the right is accessible from above the page, the other from below. Notice the well-defined separation of secondary structural elements from the capping domain on top and the thiolase core domain below. Constructed using Molscript [42].
