2z1z is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Arabidopsis thaliana. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
DAPAT_ARATH Required for lysine biosynthesis. Catalyzes the direct conversion of tetrahydrodipicolinate to LL-diaminopimelate, a reaction that requires three enzymes in E.coli. Not active with meso-diaminopimelate, lysine or ornithine as substrates.[1][2]
