Introduction
The two protein subunits possess dense regions of beta strands and alpha helices. Main points: - introduce general characteristics of protein (location within cell, substrate activity) - A small paragraph on its discovery - The broad impact of the protein (what happens if it loses function?)
Overall Structure
- 506 total residues, 87 missing - Two chains, each with many alpha helices and beta sheets - Chain A, colored by component 43 missing residues: 8-20, 484-513 - Chain B 44 missing residues: 8-20, 484-513
Ligands and non-standard residues - 2 RRV - 2 PEG - 8 NAG
Binding Interactions
Vanin-1 binds with 3 unique ligands including PEG (DI(HYDROXYETHYL)ETHER), NAG (N-ACETYL-D-GLUCOSAMINE) and RRV ((2R)-2,4-dihydroxy-N-[(3S)-3-hydroxy-4-phenylbutyl]-3,3-dimethylbutanamide). NAG and RRV both bind in the alpha helixes and beta strands but PEG only binds to the beta strands.
Additional Features
Quiz Question 1
- Additional research needed to formulate question (may potentially pertain to structure-substrate interaction)
