The general structure of CAT III is dominated by a six stranded antiparallel <scene name='Sandbox_156/Scene_4/4'>β-sheet</scene> and 5 <scene name='Sandbox_156/Scene_4/3'>α-helices</scene> stacked against the ends and face of the protein, forming a structure known as an "open-faced sandwhich". <ref>PMID: 3288984</ref>

===The Chloramphenicol Binding Site===


The <scene name='Sandbox_156/Scene_3/1'>active site</scene> of CAT III is lined with generally hydrophobic residues, allowing only 2 hydrogen bonds with the substrate. A third hydrogen bond is mediated through a <scene name='Sandbox_156/Scene_4/2'>bridging hydrogen bond</scene> between the the 1-hydroxyl of chloramphenicol and the hydroxyl of tyrosine-174 by a water molecule.
