Binding site of thermolysin (using QUANTA)



Close-up of the thermolysin binding site.

The example above shows the binding site of thermolysin. The surfaces generated by SURFNET are viewed using QUANTA.

The orange contours represent the protein's surface near the binding site while the site itself is delineated by the grey contours. The three inhibitors are taken from PDB codes 1tmn (red), 1tlp (yellow) and 4tmn (blue).
