Three Dimensional Structure of Threonine Synthase

The image(s) below show the Arabidopsis thaliana, chloroplastic threonine synthase [EC 4.2.99.2] homodimer, with the two chains shown in blue (chain B) and yellow (chain A). Transit peptides are not shown in the mature enzyme. Image(s) were obtained using the Glaxo Wellcome Experimental Research Swiss-Pdb Viewer (v3.6b3) (see references below) with crystal structure data derived from: Thomazeau K, Curien G, Dumas R, Biou V 2001 Crystal structure of threonine synthase from Arabidopsis thaliana. Protein Sci. 10: 638-648 [sequence = Q39144].
