The ligand of ''h''OAT is Pyridoxal-5'-Phosphate <scene name='93/934005/Plp/1'>(PLP)</scene>. The role of the catalytic amino acids in an enzyme is to bind to a substrate, changing the structure, causing bonds to break and new bonds to be formed. When there is a difficult reaction, the triad of amino acids works in tandem to facilitate the reaction. | The ligand of ''h''OAT is Pyridoxal-5'-Phosphate <scene name='93/934005/Plp/1'>(PLP)</scene>.
