additional information zinc is located in an unusual six-coordinate pocket and may facilitate protonation of the unactivated carbon-carbon double bond in isopentenyl diphosphate. The sulfhydryl moiety C67, perhaps in the thiolate form, is in position to remove a proton from the resulting tertiary carbocation to complete the reaction Escherichia coli ?
