Figure 5.
FIG. 5. A, superimposition of the overall structure in three crystal forms: native crystal (colored as blue), nickel complex (colored as red), and manganese complex (colored as green). The figure is shown in stereo diagram. Bound metals/ions are represented as a sphere model using the same color schemes as the corresponding protein backbones. B, superimposition of the active site residues in three crystal forms: native crystal (colored as blue), nickel complex (colored as red), and manganese complex (colored as green). The figure is shown in stereo diagram. Bound metals/ions are represented as a sphere model. Three residues in the native crystal form (His-120, Thr-121, and His-122) are individually labeled in blue. Three arrows in the figure indicate the conformation change of these three residues between native crystal structure and complex structures.
