4Q7Q exists as a homodimer quaternary structure.F Analyzing primary and quaternary structures of 4Q7Q with SPRITE and Chimera revealed two chains identical in both shape and sequence. Each chain is 266 residues long, and the entire complex has a molecular weight of approximately 58.5 kDa.F | 4Q7Q exists as a homodimer quaternary structure.F Analyzing primary and quaternary structures of 4Q7Q with SPRITE and Chimera revealed two chains identical in both shape and sequence.

4Q7Q proteins originate from bacterial species.G,H InterPro search results show how nearly every enzyme with similar sequencing to 4Q7Q is found in various bacteria, with a notable exception to eukaryotes.D Additionally, the PDB entry for 4Q7Q notes how it potentially can be found in Chitinophaga pinensis, a gram-negative bacterial species which can degrade chitin.G,H | 4Q7Q proteins originate from bacterial species.G,H InterPro search results show how nearly every enzyme with similar sequencing to 4Q7Q is found in various bacteria, with a notable exception to eukaryotes.D Additionally, the PDB entry for 4Q7Q notes how it potentially can be found in Chitinophaga pinensis, a gram-negative bacterial species which can degrade chitin.G,H | ||
