Fig. 6. Relative orientation of the catalytic and the regulatory domain.

Fig. 6

a Cartoon and surface representation of superposed monomers A from TbIMPDH-ATP1/GMP2 (green) and from AgIMPDH-ATP1/GDP2/GDP3 (blue, PDB 5TC3). Nucleotide atoms are shown as spheres. Both structures adopt an almost superimposable relative domain orientation. b Detailed view of the linker region (orange) between the Bateman (dark green) and the catalytic domains (light green) of TbIMPDH-ATP1/GMP2. The flipped conformation of GMP enables a direct interaction with residue Arg101 in the catalytic domain. Further stabilization is provided by an interaction of Arg107 and Arg223. ATP atoms are shown as spheres, while GMP and the GMP-binding residues as well as interface stabilizing residues are represented as sticks. Key interactions are shown as yellow dashes.
