Crystal structure of Bp PPAT solved at 2.1 Å resolution. (a) Biologically relevant hexameric structure of Bp PPAT from a crystal structure with bound dephospho-coenzyme A solved at 2.1 Å resolution. (b) Overlay of the dephospho-coenzyme A-bound structures of Bp PPAT (green) and E. coli PPAT (PDB entry 1b6t
, magenta; Izard & Geerlof, 1999). Green spheres are used to illustrate disordered residues in the Bp PPAT crystal structures. Figs. 2 and 3 were prepared using PyMOL (DeLano, 2002). |
