The structure of this particular bovine trypsin was determined in complex with <scene name='Sandbox_45/Btligand/1'>UB-THR 10</scene>, formula '''C'''20'''H'''29'''N'''5'''O'''2, along with two <scene name='Sandbox_45/Btsulfates/1'>sulfate ions</scene> (highlighted) and a Calcium ion (green). <scene name='10/100160/Cv/1'>Four key amino acids interact with Calcium at a subsite loop</scene>. The binding of ligand UB-THR 10 involves <scene name='10/100160/Cv/3'>water bridges</scene>, direct <scene name='10/100160/Cv/4'>hydrogen bonding, and a host of hydrophobic interactions</scene>. The figure below shows this binding in two dimensions. | The structure of this particular bovine trypsin was determined in complex with <scene name='Sandbox_45/Btligand/1'>UB-THR 10</scene>, formula '''C'''20'''H'''29'''N'''5'''O'''2, along with two <scene name='Sandbox_45/Btsulfates/1'>sulfate ions</scene> (highlighted) and a Calcium ion (green). <scene name='10/100160/Cv/1'>Four key amino acids interact with Calcium at a subsite loop</scene>.

The binding of trypsin to UB-THR 10 somewhat emulates the binding to its specific peptide substrates. The preference for lysine or arginine in trypsin catalysis is due to the composition of the trypsin <scene name=' | The binding of trypsin to UB-THR 10 somewhat emulates the binding to its specific peptide substrates.

Here (green), Asp 189 and one of two significant glycine backbones, Gly 216, interact with the ligand as they would with Arg or Lys. | ||
