Ions are widely used in proteins and mechanismistic stabilization in many areas of biochemistry. LPL’s tertiary folding is stabilized by a Calcium (Ca2+) ion. The calcium ion shares electron density with surrounding residues in order to orient the protein in its formal state. The <scene name='87/877513/Calcium_stabilization_-labeled/ | Ions are widely used in proteins and mechanismistic stabilization in many areas of biochemistry. LPL’s tertiary folding is stabilized by a Calcium (Ca2+) ion. The calcium ion shares electron density with surrounding residues in order to orient the protein in its formal state. The <scene name='87/877513/Calcium_stabilization_-labeled/2'>calcium ion stabilization</scene> is achieved by the calcium ion’s interactions with the following of LPL’s residues: Ala194, Arg197, Ser199, Asp201, and Asp202. | ||
