Figure 6.
Fig. 6. The S1 (Ca 2+) and $2 (Cd 2+) metal sites. Both sites have octahedral-like geometry with Aspl0 capping an axial position of the Ca 2÷ ion. Aspl9 and Aspl0 are bound to both metals. Asp208 is shown and it makes hydrogen bonds with WC which are thought to stabilize the cis peptide. The two metal ions are separated by 4.18/~,.
