Copper in the structure of Structure and Mechanism of the Heavy Metal Transporter Cusa (pdb 3kss)

The binding sites of Copper atom in the structure of Structure and Mechanism of the Heavy Metal Transporter Cusa (pdb code 3kss). This binding sites where shown with 5.0 Angstroms radius around Copper atom. The 3kss structure was solved by C.-C.SU, with X-Ray Crystallography technique, brief refinement statistics is given in the table below: Resolution (A) 35.3-3.9 Space group H32 a (A) 180.363 b (A) 180.363 c (A) 287.980 alpha (°) 90.00 beta (°) 90.00 gamma (°) 120.00 Rfactor (%) 26 Rfree (%) 32.5 Copper Binding Sites: Copper binding site 1 out of 1 in 3kss Click to enlarge Click to enlarge Mono- and Stereo- picture of 5.0 Angstrom coordination sphere 1 of Copper in the PDB 3kss. Coordination sphere was calculated for all residues within 5.0 Angstroms distance from the central Copper atom, shown by VdW sphere Residues shown as a stick model or VDW spheres: A: Met573, A: Ala619, A: Met623, A: Glu625, A: Met672, conact list: Atom Atom Distance (A) Cu CB A:Met573 4.75 Cu CE A:Met573 4.12 Cu CG A:Met573 4.02 Cu SD A:Met573 2.79 Cu CB A:Ala619 4.68 Cu CB A:Met623 4.62 Cu CE A:Met623 3.70 Cu CG A:Met623 4.30 Cu SD A:Met623 2.86 Cu OE1 A:Glu625 3.06 Cu OE2 A:Glu625 4.46 Cu CD A:Glu625 3.84 Cu CG A:Glu625 4.61 Cu CB A:Met672 4.98 Cu CE A:Met672 2.87 Cu CG A:Met672 3.69 Cu SD A:Met672 2.61 interactive model:
