Introduction

Adenylate Kinase

Drag the structure with the mouse to rotate

The Adenylate Kinase is an awesome protein The Adenylate Kinase is made up of 9 beta sheets (light blue) and 9 alpha helices (dark blue). Adenylate Kinase also contains hydrogen bonds (yellow) that help to hold the helices and sheets together. The hydrophobis interactions (deep pink) also play a huge role in holding this protein together. However, the hydrophobic interactions are not the only thing holding it together or helping to keep its conformation. There are also many polar and charged side groups (green) that help maintain the hydrophobic interactions and help stabilize the protein by interacting with one another.
