Similar to what is observed in Ag85C-ebselen, the alteration in <scene name='69/694218/4qdo/1'>Ag85C-Hg</scene> relaxes the kinked helix α-9 found in the native structure of the enzyme, thus inhibiting the active site (Figure 7). The ultimate effect is a decrease to only 60% of the normal enzymatic function of Ag85C.<ref name="Favrot"/> | ||

The conversion of the glutamate, a key player in the catalytic triad, to the corresponding amide-containing side chain as well as a loss of a general base in the charge relay are both key causes for the loss of function.<ref name="Favrot"/> | ||
