Variations at residues alpha4 Thr183 and beta2 Ala135 generate different shapes of the binding pocket (Figure 4- Top), but preserve the electrostatic potential of the system: all non-conserved residues at position 183 are hydrophobic, and hydroxyl of Thr154 and Ser154 are superimposed, pointing away from the ligand, towards the carboxylate of Asp122.
3; see also reference [ 5 ] ). The Walker A motif GxxxxGK [T,S] and Walker B motif hhhhDExx (where h is any hydrophobic residue and x is any residue), that contain residues essential for ATP binding and hydrolysis in all P-type ATPases [ 17 ] , are present in their canonical forms in the AAA2, AAA3, AAA4, and AAA5 protomers of midasin for all the organisms in Figure 3. The Walker A motif is present also in AAA1 and AAA6, although the Walker B motif in these protomers is deviant.
Methionine has a hydrophobic side chain about the same length as the aliphatic portion of the lysine side chain, but lacks the terminal amino group.
Table 5shows that particularly promising filters include the use of density-based scoring functions, hydrophobic compactness, all-atom pairwise preferences and match of the final conformation to the predicted secondary structure.
Its amino acid profile reveals the presence of seven hydrophobic regions which likely represent transmembrane domains.
