additional information |
all five mutant enzymes bind farnesyl diphosphate with similar affinity to that of the wild-type enzyme, indicating that the targeted residues neither directly nor indirectly influence the farnesyl diphosphate binding site, only the wild-type enzyme able to bind zinc, while all five of the mutant enzymes lose this ability |
