Figure 4.
Fig. 4. Model to ATP and 2-oxoglutarate binding sites in HsPII protein. (A ) Diagram of a C trace overlay of HsPII (orange) with CHMI (cyan) [31]. A top view of the trimers similar in orientation to Figs 1A and 2Bii Go-. The different views of the proposed 2-oxoglutarate and ATP-binding sites in HsPII protein are shown in (B ), (C ) and (D). (B) Position of ATP and 2-oxo-3-pentynoate in the lateral cleft of HsPII. (C) ATP molecule and the neighbouring amino-acid residues. (D ) 2-oxo-3-pentynoate molecule and the neighbour amino-acid residues. Location of ATP and 2-oxo-3-pentynoate was modelled using HsPII, EcGlnK-ATP, EcPII-ATP and 4-oxalocrotonate tautomerase-2-oxo-3-pentynoate structures using dali and lsqkab[8,14,15].
