Several highly conserved carboxylic acids in the active sites bind a single divalent metal ion [ 12 ] , and one of these residues has been shown to be essential for catalytic activity of E. coli RNase III [ 13 ] .
It also seems very unlikely that the specific structural configuration of 2 carboxylic acid groups and arginine in bR could be conserved in pR, even if, as suggested previously [ 1 ] , other surface carboxylic acids in pR could substitute in some ways for the roles of E194 and E204 in bR.
Retinoids are found in a variety of chemical oxidation states, including alcohol, aldehyde, ester, and carboxylic acid functionalities.
