Ligand OLA is hydrogen bonded to <scene name='93/934003/Arg128_bonded_to_ola/1'>Arg128</scene>. OLA is also hydrogen bonded to a water molecule which is hydrogen bonded to Arg128.
The <scene name='93/934003/Protein_view_2/1'>ligand of interest</scene> in the MBD enzyme  is called <scene name='93/934003/Ola/1'>Oleic acid (OLA)</scene> and is located within subunit A. OLA is hydrogen bonded to <scene name='93/934003/Arg128_bonded_to_ola/1'>Arg128</scene>. OLA is also hydrogen bonded to a water molecule which is hydrogen bonded to Arg128 as well.

The Protein is composed of alpha helix, beta sheet, and other structures. The protein consists of two major domains with what appears to be a 60% alpha helixes (pink) and 40% beta sheets (yellow) when viewing the <scene name='93/934003/60_alpha_and_40_beta/1'>structure</scene>. The two subunits are homodimers, containing 9 alpha helix and 15 beta sheets each. In the first subunit, the amino acid Arg148 that hydrogen bonds to the OLA ligand, which is contained within a beta sheet. The alpha helixes and beta sheets loop and fold to form a <scene name='93/934003/Tertiary_structure/1'>3D globular protein</scene>. The <scene name='93/934003/Space_filling/1'>space filling</scene> model helps to highlight the globular nature of the protein.
