The function of the protein LDMS is to play a large role in Staphylococcal sulfur amino acid metabolism. On the image, you can see the backbone of the structure, (faintly colored), the amino acids, (in the center and brightly colored), and the ligands ADP and other ions floating around the molecule. LdmS commonly exists in an open state with the P-loop and N-loop disordered. | |||
