Each monomer is composed of a small domain localized in the amino terminal part (residues 1-177) which constitute the coenzyme binding domain and a larger domain in the carboxyl terminal part (residues 178-485).<ref name="struc">PMID: 7881907</ref>

*''Coenzyme binding domain''
====''Coenzyme binding domain''====


The coenzyme binding domain binds the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicotinamide_adenine_dinucleotide NAD]  or [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicotinamide_adenine_dinucleotide_phosphate NADP]  which participes in the dehydrogenation of '''G6P'''.

Arg46 is strcilty conserved and involved in the binding with the 2'-phosphate of NADP. Gln47 could interact both with the 2'-phosphate of NADP or with the 2'-hydroxyl of NAD.

*''Carboxyl terminus domain''
====''Carboxyl terminus domain''====


The carboxyl terminus domain is defined by a β+α particular fold which has created his own fold family the [https://scop.berkeley.edu/sunid=39989 G6PD-like]. It is composed of a large essentially antiparallel curved nine-stranded β-sheet with 11 helices and remain well ordered to the carboxy-terminal residue. It is essential in the activity of the enzyme because it ensure the formation of the tertiary and the quaternary structure.

*''Domain boundary''
====''Domain boundary''====


At the boundary between the two domains some helices of the carboxy terminus domain interacts with multiples β strands and helices of the coenzyme binding domain ensuring the cohesion of the enzyme monomer.

Line 82: Line 82:
Asp177 and His240 are two basic residues conserved and localized in the binding pocket which could act as base for the deshydrogenation reaction. Site-directed mutagenesis has shown that H240N mutant have a lower activity than the wild-type enzyme. So it has been deduced that His240 is involved as the base of the reaction.
