Figure 3.
The position of ribose in the active site of EcoRK (PDB 1RKD). The semi-transparent surface represents the hydrophobic interface in the lid domain, formed by Ala98, Ile100 and Ile110. Residues 248–251 and 285–295 are hidden. Carbon atoms of ribose are colored green, carbon atoms of residues Ala98, Ile100 and Ile110—orange, oxygen atoms—red, nitrogen atoms—blue. Yellow dashed lines represent polar contacts Visualization was performed in PyMOL 2.0 (Schrödinger, LLC).
