FIG. 4. Dhurrin bound in the active sites to SbDhr1-E189D and glucotetrazole bound to ZmGlu1-E191D. A, electron density surrounding the dhurrin molecule in the active site of SbDhr1-E189D. The 2F[o] - F[c] Fourier difference maps at the final stage of refinement are shown contoured at 1 above the mean density. B, a slice in the surface representation of SbDhr1 in complex with dhurrin showing the cyano group-binding pocket. The dipole moment of the polar pocket, calculated with GRASP (28), coincides with that of the cyano group. C, electron density around the glucotetrazole molecule in the active site of ZmGlu1-E191D. The F[o] - F[c] Fourier difference maps before refinement are shown, calculated using only the enzyme model phases without substrate, contoured at 2.5 above the mean density. D, superimposition of the active sites of myrosinase (blue) and ZmGlu1 (yellow), both in complex with the glucotetrazole inhibitor molecule.
