[http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/explore/explore.do?structureId=1f8i Isocitrate lyase] is a tetramer with 222 symmetry. Each subunit is composed of 14 alpha helices and 14 beta sheets which includes a total of 426 residues. These α helices and β sheets form an unusual α/β barrel seen in Figure 1. The α/β barrel contains a topology of (βα)<sub>2</sub>α(βα)<sub>5</sub>β, differing from the canonical (βα)<sub>8</sub> pattern. Residues 184-200 and 235-254 connects the third and forth β-strands to their consecutive helices and form a <scene name='69/694225/Small_beta_domain/1'>small β-domain</scene> that consists of a short five-stranded βsheet (β6,β7,β9,β10,β11) that lies on top of the α/β barrel. <ref name="sharma"> Sharma, V.; Sharma, S.; Hoener zu Bentrup, K.; McKinney, J.; Russell, D.; ''et. al''; Structure of isocitrate lyase, a persistence factor of ''Mycobacterium tuberculosis''.
