==Quiz Question 1==


GSK-3 beta has various inhibiters; one example is AMP-PMP. These inhibitors bind to the N-terminus of the ligand on the GSK-3 beta complex, a result of the classical binding mechanism for a protein kinase. However, in the case of staurosporine (another inhibitor), it is unable to classically bind to the N-terminus of the ligand on the GSK-3 beta complex. This is because, in a GSK-3 beta complex with staurosporine, the ligand in question has an incompatible angle at the N-terminus, thus failing to undergo classical binding<ref name="paper" />.
GSK-3β has various inhibiters; one example is AMP-PMP. These inhibitors bind to the N-terminus of the ligand on the GSK-3β complex, a result of the classical binding mechanism for a protein kinase. However, in the case of staurosporine (another inhibitor), it is unable to classically bind to the N-terminus of the ligand on the GSK-3β complex. This is because, in a GSK-3β complex with staurosporine, the ligand in question has an incompatible angle at the N-terminus, thus failing to undergo classical binding<ref name="paper" />.


What type of bonding does GSK-3 beta exhibit with staurosporine, and which of its residues form this type of bond? If needed, a green screen of the complex can be found below.
