Figure 3. (a) P2[1]2[1]2[1]-A 1.9 Å F[o]–F[c] electron density, contoured at the + 3.0 σ level, computed before any modelling of the ligand was attempted. The final model for the ricinoleic acid ligand is shown with C (orange) and O(red) surrounded by the OmCI pocket residues (C, green; O, red; N, blue; and S, yellow); the picture was produced with PyMol [http://www.pymol.sourceforge.net/]. (b) A representation of the water molecules and OmCI residues forming hydrogen bonds (with distances in Å) and non-bonding hydrophobic contacts to the ricinoleic acid. The picture was produced with the program LigPLot.^57
