Molecular Models
Protein Structure
- Protein Structure - Amino Acids: Jmol models of the 20 common amino acids
- Protein Structure - Ubiquitin: Jmol model of a small protein. (1aar & 1ubq)
- Protein Structure - Ribonuclease A: Jmol model of a small protein containing cis peptide bonds (3a1r).
- Protein Structure - Phosphofructokinase I: Jmol model highlights the different levels of protein structure. (1pfk)
- Protein Structure - Pyruvate Kinase: Jmol model that highlights the differeent domains in this protein (1pkm). (Use to answer Problem 6 from Chapter 4.)
- Protein Structure - Oxymyogoblin: Jmol model that highlights the ligands involved in oxygen binding to myoglobin (1mbo)
- Protein Structure - Oxymyoglobin: Molsoft ICM model that highlights the ligands involved in oxygen binding to myoglobin (1mbo)
B-DNA Structure
- Structure of the B-form of DNA: Jmol model of a dodecamer (2bna).
Enzymes
- Enzyme Structure - Phosphofructokinase I: Jmol model shows binding to both the active site and the allosteric regulatory site.
- Enzyme Structure - Hexokinase: Jmol model illlustrates "induced fit" by showing the conformational changes that take place upon substrate binding to the enzyme hexokinase.
- Catalytic Strategies - Chymotrypsin: Jmol illustrates the "catalytic triad", the covalently bound intermediate and the binding interactions between enzyme and substrate.
- PIM-1
