Figure 4. The internal aldimine Lys209-PLP and the sulfate ion in the active site. (a) Architecture of the active site (stereo view). The main-chain traces of subunits A and B are shown by light blue and light green tubes, respectively. The internal aldimine Lys209-PLP (cyan) and the sulfate ion are shown by ball and stick models. Hydrogen bonds are shown as pink broken lines. (b) The |F[o]–F[c]| simulated-annealing omit electron density maps (3.0σ) for Lys209-PLP and the sulfate ion are shown in blue and green, respectively. (c) The |F[o]–F[c]| simulated-annealing omit electron density maps (3.0σ) for Lys209 and the sulfate ion are shown in blue and green, respectively, in the active site of molecule B of the SeMet SepCysS structure.
