Mutated Q162 to <scene name='10/1075254/R162_mutation/1'>R162</scene> in for improved h-bonding with the diene.  
====Q162R====
Residue 162 resides near the top of the binding entrance to the enzyme, and is within 3A in most models on the enzyme. It can act as a hydrogen bond donor to the terminal phosphate on the ligand when in proximity. To increase this interaction, the group chose a Q to <scene name='10/1075254/Q162R/10'>R mutation</scene>, which decreased the length  of the potential hydrogen bond to within 2.5A, increasing the strength of the interaction.

In this generation, it was found that the most catalytically efficient models had mutated T34, P48, and R56 to <scene name='10/1075254/Ce_20_mutations/4'>I43,L48, and S56</scene>. These mutations further tightened the binding pocket and create a more hydrophobic environment.
