The Zn 1 site has 3 histidine residues and 1 bridging hydroxide as ligands, and the Zn 2 site has 2 histidines, 1 aspartic acid, 1 terminally-bound water, and the bridging hydroxide as ligands.
Pursuing the protein-protein interaction hypothesis, it appears that a protruding J-shaped polypeptide volume involving an aspartic or glutamic acid, or a negatively charged cofactor, is a likely ligand for the YbaK-binding site.
Protein protonation states were modeled as in the related HIV-1 protease MD simulation study [ 56 ] . All protein residues were modeled in their charged state except for one of the two aspartic acid groups (Asp 25 and Asp 25') in the active site since previous studies [ 57 58 59 ] have shown that at least one of these two aspartic acids is protonated.
Collagen and CTX fragments will rearrange with age to three age-modified forms: the isomerised form ( L-isoaspartyl peptide [β L]), where the bond between the aspartic acid and glycine residue goes through the β-carboxyl group of the aspartyl residue; the racemised form ( D-aspartyl peptide [α D]), where the aspartic acid (D 1211) is on a D-enantiomeric form; and the isomerised and racemised form ( D-isoaspartyl peptide [β D]) [ 9 ] . The relative accumulation of the three age-modified forms is dependent on the balance between anabolic and catabolic processes in bone, and pathologic situations affecting these processes may thus also affect the relative amounts of the four CTX forms [ 9 10 11 ] .
The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 aspartic protease (HIV-1 PR) is an important enzyme due to its key role in viral maturation.
