Papain's single polypeptide chain consists of 212 amino acid residues which fold to form a groove containing the active site between its two domains. Its <scene name='Sandbox_35/Secondary_structure_papain/2'>secondary structure</scene> consists of 17 <scene name='Sandbox_35/2nd_struc_papain_beta/2'>beta sheet</scene> strands and 7 <scene name='Sandbox_35/2nd_struc_papain_helix/2'>alpha helices</scene> giving it a composition 21% and 25% respectively. <ref name="9PAP PDB">[http://www.pdb.org/pdb/explore/explore.do?structureId=9PAP]9PAP PDB</ref> The hydrogen bonds within the alpha helices are shorter than the typical alpha helix because of C=O being directed further away from the helical axis. Moreover, the beta sheet hydrogen bonding constraints and structural angles show great variation; hydrogen bonds in the sheets' central tend to be shorter than on the fringes. Three disulfide bonds, like <scene name='Sandbox_35/Papain_cys_bond/1'>Cys 22-Cys 63</scene>, serve to hold papain's tertiary structure together. <ref name="Kamphuis">PMID: 6502713</ref>

<scene name='Sandbox_35/Cathepsin_l_specific_inhibitor/3'>Cathepsin L specific inhibitor</scene> is part of a series known as CLIK inhibitors and was used on papain as an assessment of inhibition specificity for cathepsin enzymes. Structural differences between Papain-CLIK 148 complex and original papain is not very drastic. Minute changes result primarily from alterations in surface proteins except where a covalent bond is formed between the C2 on <scene name='Sandbox_35/Clik_cys/1'>CLIK 148 and Cys 25 residue</scene>. The primary <scene name='Sandbox_35/Cathepsin_interaction/3'>interactions</scene> between pseudo-substrate/inhibitor and papain were non-water hydrogen bonds and mostly hydrophobic interactions. CLIK 148's binding to the active site of papain is in a non-substrate mode with the main site showing pyrimidine ring interaction between <scene name='Sandbox_35/Clik_trp_177/1'>Trp 177 and CLIK 148</scene>. Hydrogen bonding is observed between the oxygens in <scene name='Sandbox_35/Clik_gly_gln/1'>CLIK 148 to Gln 19 and Gly 66 residues</scene>. Moreover, a water molecule has been observed to be near the His 159 residue enabling greater hydrogen bonding, once again highlighting solvents role in stability. <ref>PMID: 10600517</ref> More favorable energetic has also been revealed through modeling when hydrophobic and aromatic parts of the ligand occupying the S2, S3, and S1' subsites with at least three hydrogen bonding contacts between the protein conserved binding site residues and the ligand. <ref>PMID: 9472614</ref>
