Figure 6

Contacts formed between ODCase and the phosphate group (green dashed lines), the ribose (magenta dashed lines), and the pyrimidine ring (the cyan dashed lines) of the postulated transition state analog inhibitor BMP (shown in red). Active site residues contributed by loop 95–103 of the opposite subunit (represented by the green ribbon) are designated by an asterisk. The numbers adjacent to each dashed line were measured between electronegative atoms and represent the average value derived from all four subunits in the asymmetric unit. Contacts between amino acid residues are indicated by thin, black dashed lines. These distances between electronegative atoms are Gly-214(CO) → Lys-156(NH), 2.7 Å; Asn-120(CO) → Lys-93(NH), 2.8 Å; Asn-120(NH2) → Asp-91(COO−), 2.7 Å; Asp-91(COO−) → Lys-93(NH3+), 2.5 Å; Asp-91(COO−) → Lys-59(NH3+), 2.7 Å; Ser-35(OH) → Lys-59(NH3+), 3.1 Å; and Ser-35(OH) → Asp-37(COO−), 2.9 Å.
