The secondary structure consists of mainly <scene name="48/483884/Alpha_helices/2">alpha helices</scene | The secondary structure consists of mainly <scene name="48/483884/Alpha_helices/2">alpha helices</scene>, which can be seen in pink. The quaternary structure of the protein consists of <scene name='48/483884/Twosubunits/1'>two asymmetrical subunits</scene> forming a complex.Due to “significant rotational freedom among the subdomains”[1] the two subunits when superimposed upon one another differ by about 6 degrees of rotation. The structure is about 52.1 kDA in size and made up of 458 amino acids. | ||
