From: Dimerization of inositol monophosphatase Mycobacterium tuberculosis SuhB is not constitutive, but induced by binding of the activator Mg2+

Figure 2

Fold and crystal dimer of M. tuberculosis SuhB. (A) Stereo ribbon diagram of the SuhB monomer, with secondary structure elements coloured according to the penta-layered αβαβα-sandwich arrangement of IMPases (cf. Figure 1). (B) Dimer of SuhB formed by subunits A (blue, yellow) and C (lightblue, green). Selected secondary structure elements are labelled for ease of comparison with panel A. Grey spheres indicate boundaries of disordered loops, with corresponding residue numbers in black type. A (modelled) molecule of inositol-1-phosphate in ball-and-stick representation indicates the location of the active site(s) in both panels.
