Adenylate Kinase (PDB ID #: 1ake)
IntroductionAdenylate Kinase is a good little protein.
Physical PropertiesStructureThe secondary structure of adenylate kinase shows alpha helicies (cyan) and beta sheets (green) surrounding the non-hydrolyzable substrate analogue (orange). Adenylate kinase has a hydrophilic exterior, and a hydrophobic core, with additional hydrophilic residues on the interior contacting the ligand. Active Site and Mechanismresidues within 3 angstroms of the ligand are involved in binding the ligand or stabilizing the active site.
