Figure 2

Active site of the glmS ribozyme through the cleavage reaction. A. The active site structure of the unbound, pre-cleaved state of the glmS ribozyme. The ribozyme is depicted in green, with the nucleotides that flank the scissile phosphate in blue and the reactive atoms shown in orange. This coloring scheme is used throughout the figures. B. The active site structure of the GlcN6P bound state of the glmS ribozyme. The bound sugar molecule is depicted in gray. C. The active site of the reacted state of the glmS ribozyme.
