Structural analysis of inhibition of E. coli methionine aminopeptidase: implication of loop adaptability in selective inhibition of bacterial enzymes

Table 2 rmsd values generated by pair-wise comparisons of the eight complex structures^a

^a The pdb codes and the bound inhibitors in the eight structures are: 1XNZ, 1; 2EVM, 2, 2EVC, 3; 2Q92, 4; 2Q93, 5; 2Q94, 6; 2Q95, 7; and 2Q96, 8. These structures were aligned in a pair-wise fashion using the Cα carbons of residues 4–256; the resulting rmsd values (in Å) are presented. Numbers given in parentheses are reductions of rmsd (in Å) when the same calculations were carried out with exclusion of residues 61–64 (the YHGY loop).
