Adenylate Kinase (PDB ID #: 1ake) spinqualitylabelsall models adenylate kinase bound to non-hydrolyzable substrate analogue Show:Asymmetric Unit Biological Assembly Drag the structure with the mouse to rotate   Export Animated Image   Print3D Introduction Adenylate Kinase is a good little protein. Physical Properties Adenylate kinase is caged with water molecules. Structure The secondary structure of adenylate kinase shows alpha helicies (cyan) and beta sheets (green) surrounding the non-hydrolyzable substrate analogue (orange). Adenylate kinase has a hydrophilic exterior, and a hydrophobic core, with additional hydrophilic residues on the interior contacting the ligand. Active Site and Mechanism residues within 3 angstroms of the ligand are involved in binding the ligand or stabilizing the active site. References
