You can see the two-part portion of the protein. The protein has been made somewhat<scene name='95/954095/Color_change/5'> transparent</scene> so you can see the substrate within the ligand. | You can see the two-part portion of the protein.

Two linkers connect two similar lobes. Alpha helices surround a beta-sheet. The C-terminal lobe inserts after β-strand number four on the N-terminal lobe, as many VFT proteins do. A long, 90-amino-acid-long α-clamp wraps around lobe 1’s back side. A number of hydrophobic amino acid contacts on helix α9, the loop connecting α11 and α12, and the C-terminus. There is a π-bulge on center α6 helix of the second lobe that has hydrophobic interactions between the α-clamp and α6. | Two linkers connect two similar lobes. Alpha helices surround a beta-sheet.
