Figure 5.
FIGURE 5. Detail of the hITPK1 inositol phosphate binding pocket. Identical projections for eITPK1 (A) and hITPK1 (B), showing the reduction in inositol phosphate binding site volume and ATP solvent accessibility for hITPK1. Ins(1,3,4)P[3] is shown modeled into the hITPK1 based on structural alignment with eITPK1 and exhibits a steric clash with His-162. A solvent-accessible surface is shown for each molecule. The position of the ATP -phosphate is indicated by " ". Metal ions are shown as green spheres. Panel C is a stereodiagram showing structural superposition of hITPK1 with eITPK1. hITPK1 is shown with blue carbons atoms, with a bound sulfate shown in gold and red. Residues capable of carrying a phosphate that are proximal to the ATP -phosphate are shown in yellow. eITPK1 in complex with Ins(1,3,4)P[3] is shown with orange carbon atoms for protein, magenta carbons for the inositol.
