Most of the hydrogen bonding between Hpa2 and its co-factor AcCoA are highly conserved and occur via the main-chain groups, not the side-chains. This explains the uniformity of the binds with the co-factors, despite the low degree of sequence conservation. The conserved main-chain contacts seen in a segment of Motif A | Most of the hydrogen bonding between Hpa2 and its co-factor AcCoA are highly conserved and occur via the main-chain groups, not the side-chains. This explains the uniformity of the binds with the co-factors, despite the low degree of sequence conservation. The conserved main-chain contacts seen in a segment of Motif A forms a loop before and around the first turn of the helix in Motif A. This is found in residues | ||

Most of the residues in this loop contribute to a series of hydrogen bonds between the Alpha and Beta phosphate oxygen atoms via main-chain groups. This includes a conserved solvent molecule interaction. This loops was not located within Hpa2 in the absence of its co-factor, indicating that this region is formed upon co-factor binding. It appears that this area of interactions is a vital determinant for the binding of AcCoA. <ref name=Shiva/> | ||
