Fig 3. Structure of the protein coded by the B. parapertussis ortholog of BP2936.

Fig 3

The coordinates found in the RCSB Protein Data Bank (Nr 3OJC) correspond to the B. parapertussis ortholog (97% sequence identity with 2936P). (A), the structure of the protein coded by BPP1064 is shown in cartoon representation. The palmitate molecule found in the cavity is shown in yellow stick representation. (B), A model of 2936P with palmitate and S-adenosyl homocysteine (SAH) in the cavity was constructed. Both SAH and the methyl palmitate are displayed in sticks. A zoom of the relevant region is presented in C. The sulfur atom of SAH, which carries the methyl group in SAM, is shown as a yellow ball. The conserved residues modified by site-directed mutagenesis (colored in slate blue) are indicated.
