Figure 3
ManI and a Ca2+ ion bound in the catalytic active sites of BT3130 (a) and BT3965 (b). Ligands are shown together with the respective catalytic acid and base residues. The depicted electron-density maps are REFMAC maximum-likelihood/σA-weighted 2FoFc syntheses contoured at 0.15 and 0.37 e Å−3 (1.0σ), respectively. (c) Extended overlay of the BT3130 (green) and BT3965 (orange) active-site pockets. Within the −1 subsite, all side chains, structural motifs and hydrogen-bonding interactions with ManI are fully conserved (rear centre of image, black labels). Structural elements that compose the reducing-end (positive) subsites show far greater variability (front left and upper right of image, grey labels). Enzyme–ligand/ion hydrogen bonds are shown as black dashed lines.
