FIGURE 4. Superposition of G336V,G337V + serine with G336V tetramers. Left, the figure depicts a superposition of serine-bound G336V,G337V double mutant onto a G336V tetramer. The serine-bound G336V,G337V tetramer is generated using the symmetry-related molecules. Subunit A and C are colored orange, and subunits B and D are colored pink. In the G336V structure, the subunits A and C are colored with shades of green, and subunits B and D are colored with shades of blue. Subunits A and C of G336V,G337V + serine superimpose well on the respective A and C subunits of the G336V serine-free enzyme. In subunits B and D, there is rotation of the nucleotide binding domain of 10-12°. In both the tetramers, ligands are not shown for the purpose of clarity. Right, detailed view of the hydrogen bond interaction at Asn^190 of subunits A and C of G336V,G337V + serine. In subunits B and D (pink), the Asn^190 residues are separated by too great a distance to form hydrogen bond contacts.
