Structure and Activity

Classification and Structural Analysis of RPE65

Classification nomenclature for RPE65 is as follow according to <insert classification type>

Retinal pigment epithelium 65 (RPE65) resembles a 7-bladed propeller with two deep binding pockets that contains a lipophilic binding pocket (which binds to endogenous palmitoyl acid) as well as an charged iron(II) atom stabilized by 4 histidine residues (His180, His241, His313 and His527) which binds to the carboxylic acid functional group of endogenous palmitoyl acid.
