One section is a <scene name='56/568020/Barrel-like/3'>barrel-like structure</scene> formed by residues 456-530 (only shown on chain D). This structure is formed by two, almost orthogonal, β sheets, one consisting of four (β1 - β4) and one of three (β5 - β7) stand. | The standard PH domain fold consists of mainly three different sections: | ||

The PH domain of PDK1 possesses an additional extension N-terminal to the standard PH domain fold. This 'bud' forms two additional β strands and one α helix. The two β strands β1' and β2'extend the β1 - β4 sheet in an antiparallel fashion through the formation of β sheet hydrogen bonds between β2'and β1. | |||
