It is formed of a homodimer (dimer of two identical monomers).
It is formed of a homodimer, so a dimer of two identical monomers. Each monomer is composed of 2 domains, <scene name='82/829347/Homodimer_g6pd/1'>1 red and 1 green.</scene>
Depending on several conditions, it can dimerize to form tetramers. Each monomer in the complex has a substrate binding site that binds to G6P, and a catalytic coenzyme binding site that binds to NADP+/NADPH using the Rossman fold.
