Acyl-Acyl Carrier Protein (PDB 2FAE)

Description

I Recently Painted This And Added Some Additional Photos. If You Are Going To Attempt To Print One Of My Protein Models, This Is Probably The Best One To Start With, As It Has Supports Built In. This Is A Model Of The Structure Of Escherichia Coli Decanoyl-Acyl Carrier Protein. The Model Is Based On The Crystal Structure And The Pdb File 2Fae. This Printed Well, And Is Now A Completed Model. This Protein Is From The Common Bacterium E. Coli, And Is Important For Moving Around Lipid Molecules (Oils) Within The Cell.. It Has A Decanoyl (C10 Fatty Acid) Group Attached To The Cofactor, Which I Have Represented As Cpk, Along With The Sidechain Ligand. It Is Actually Quite A Robust Structure, But Is Able To Flex Quite A Bit..
