Figure 3.
Fig. 3. Stereoview of a structural superimposition of H. zea carboxypeptidase B in orange, human carboxypeptidase B in green, and H. armigera carboxypeptidase A, in purple. Trp-277A of CPBHz and residues Trp-277B and Tyr-277 in human CPAHa and CPBh, respectively, are represented as stick models; the arrow indicates the entrance to the active-site cleft. The zinc ion is shown in silver. The orientation of the molecule is the same as in Fig. 1.
