Figure 3
The two amino acid substitutions of the DA1472 variant make the substrate specificity pocket wider. In this figure, the mode of binding of NADH (magenta sticks) and Fe2+ to the active site of the DA1472 variant are shown, as well as (in yellow) the residues Gly151 and Val259 (PDB entry 7qnh). Also shown are the superimposed NAD+ (gray sticks), as well as the residues Asn151 (orange, from the NAD-binding domain) and Leu259 (green, from the Fe2+-binding domain) of the wild-type active site (PDB entry 5br4). The mode of binding of the product of the reduction reaction, ethyl­eneglycol (EDO, cyan), which interacts with its oxygen atom with the Fe2+ ion (PDB entry 7qnf), as highlighted by a dotted line. `H' identifies the N-terminal end of the pyrophosphate-binding helix of the NAD-binding domain (brown).
