2.4.2.1 | acyclovir | ACV, an acyclic derivative of the PNP substrate guanosine, an acyclic analogue of 2'-deoxyguanosine, that is used as an antiviral drug for the treatment of some human viral infections. The ACV molecule occupies the nucleoside-binding pocket in the active-site cavity, where it adopts two conformations. Sulfate ions are located in both the nucleoside-binding and phosphate-binding pockets of the enzyme. Binding structure, overview | Escherichia coli |

2.4.2.1 | homohexamer | the hexameric molecule can be considered as a trimer of dimers, where each dimer contains two complete active sites. Each monomer consists of a central core comprising mixed beta-sheet surrounded by alpha-helices with an extended C-terminal alpha7 helix. The active sites are located within the deep cavity between the dimer subunits and comprise amino-acid residues from both subunits. The active-site cavity is predominantly lined by hydrophobic amino acids from strands beta5, beta7, beta8, beta9, and beta10 and helix alpha7. The adjacent dimer subunit contributes the side chains of His4* and Arg43* to the active site | Escherichia coli |
