Figure 8.
Figure 8. Structure alignment of V-CPO and V-BPO. Residues with special functions are in coloured bold letters: green, connected to vanadium atom; red, hydrogen-bonded to vanadate oxygen atoms; catalytic active histidine resi- dues, pink (conserved in V-HPO) and blue (unique in V-BPO). C a -pairs used in matrix and RMS deviation calcu- lations are marked by asterisks (*). The tertiary structure alignment (Lessel & Schomburg, 1994) and the Figure was prepared using BRAGI (Schomburg & Reichelt, 1988).
