Atropine is an inhibitor of phospholipase 2A, and can be seen in complex with this enzyme on the left. The <scene name='Sandbox_53/Atropine_structure/1'>structure of atropine</scene> can be seen more clearly in gray using the ball-and stick representation of the drug and protein. It can also be seen in green in this (space-filling model). Finally, the (N and C terminal) portions of the protein can be highlighted, and the active site with atropine can be seen in the middle of the protein.
