[ jump to morphs ]

Classification [D-h-2]

Structures 1D9V 1MRP [ PartsList ]

Description From the abstract to Bruns et al. (2001): "A 21 degrees rotation separates the two structural domains when the apo form is compared with the holo conformer, indicating that upon release of iron, the protein undergoes a change in conformation by bending about the central beta-sheet hinge."
