Fig. 3. Proton relay stabilizing the imidic acid state of Asn92.

Fig. 3

(A) Difference maps calculated without H/D atoms around carbonyl oxygen atoms of Asn92 and the amide of Cys96. The 2FobsFcalc (blue) and FobsFcalc (red and green) maps of the x-ray analysis are shown at the 1.0σ and 3.0σ levels, respectively, and 2FobsFcalc (purple) and FobsFcalc (red and green) maps of the neutron analysis are shown at the 1.0σ and 2.0σ levels, respectively. (B) Difference maps calculated without H/D atoms around carbonyl oxygen atoms of Asn105 and amide of Asn105, His107, and Met109. The 2FobsFcalc map of the x-ray analysis is shown at the 1.0σ level, and the FobsFcalc map of the neutron analysis is shown at the 2.0σ level. (C) Proposed mechanism of formation of the imidic acid form of Asn92.
