The <scene name='69/691537/Unita/1'>Aα subunit</scene> (or scaffolding subunit) along with the catalytic subunit makes up the core enzyme. Aα is composed of fifteen [[HEAT repeats]] that form a double layer of antiparallel alpha helices. The arrangement of the alpha helices causes the subunit to adopt a half circle shape. When in this conformation the Aα subunit is able to interact with the catalytic subunit via four-conserved HEAT repeats <ref> Xing, Yongna, Yanhui Xu, Yu Chen, Philip D.

The <scene name='69/691537/Unitc/1'>Cα subunit</scene> (Catalytic subunit) associates with the A subunit to form a heterodimer protein. The catalytic subunit (in conjunction with the scaffolding and regulatory subunits) can have many functions and is a particularly important factor in cell growth regulation, signal transduction regulation, and cellular development as well as playing a key role in suppressing uncontrolled cell proliferation. It thought that the B subunit is largely responsible for the specific function of the A-C dimer.
