Selected structures of B. anthracis proteins solved by the York and Oxford laboratories. (a) A monomer of ThiI (BA4899) shown as a ribbon representation. The N-terminal ferredoxin-like domain is coloured green and forms a continuous β-sheet surface with the THUMP domain (red). The enzymatic PP-loop pyrophosphatase domain is coloured blue and shows the position (as a stick representation) of AMP bound at the active site. The glycine-rich linker joining the THUMP domain to the PP-loop domain is coloured yellow. (b) A ribbon representation of the lowest energy structure (PDB code 2bzb ) of the Spo0E-like phosphatase target BA1655 showing the individual monomers in green and blue. (c) A ribbon diagram showing the hexameric structure of unliganded D-ribulose-5-phosphate epimerase (BA3998). Individual chains are coloured red, orange, yellow, green, light blue and dark blue. The hexameric structure of the protein with bound substrate has also been determined.
