RCSBProteinDataBank | Enzymatic reaction (from PDB-101) @RCSBProteinDataBank | Uploaded October 2018 | Updated October 2024, 4 days ago.
In this excerpt from "How Enzymes Work," atomic structures from the Protein Data Bank archive are used to show the mechanism of aconitase, an enzyme involved in the breakdown of sugar. It demonstrates how the specific arrangement of amino acids in an enzyme can interact with a small molecule and catalyze a complex chemical reaction. The movie is part of outreach materials on enzyme function and energy metabolism at RCSB PDB-101 (pdb101.rcsb.org/).
