Figure 6
Putative membrane binding sites in crystal structures of GlcCerase. Catalytic residues are shown in red and loops 1–3 in green. Substrate binding was modelled according to Dvir et al. (2003) and shown in yellow. (a) Some of the sulfates are shown in space-filling representation in red. (b) Side-on view [rotated ∼90° around the horizontal axis relative to (a)] of a putative mode of binding of GlcCerase to negatively charged phospholipids. |
