Figure 7
Binding of a divalent metal ion in the active-site cleft of PA1611REC. (a) Diagram of the surface electrostatic potential of PA1611REC. Negatively charged regions are colored red and positively charged regions blue, respectively. Divalent metal ion Mg2+ (shown as a light green sphere) is located in the negatively charged active-site cleft and interacts with Asp522, Asp565 and Arg567 (shown as sticks). (b) Spatial position of the residues and water molecules involved in the interactions with Mg2+. The six coordination positions of Mg2+ are indicated with yellow dashed lines, whereas the interactions between the residues and water molecules are indicated with cyan dashed lines. Oxygen atoms of Glu521, Asp522, Arg567 and Asp565 are shown as red sticks; water molecules are displayed as small blue spheres.
