Figure 4
Polder difference electron density, contour level 3σ, in the active center of BlaC subunit B. (a) The CEF ligand has not yet diffused in; the phosphate (Pi) from the crystallization buffer is dominant in the active site. (b) 5 ms after mixing: the phosphate is beginning to be displaced by CEF. (c) 10 ms after mixing: the phosphate is no longer dominant. (d) 50 ms after mixing: little evidence of the phosphate remains and the density only has features of the antibiotic compound. Nearby amino acids are marked in (a).
