Fig. 7. Three-dimensional molecular model of AoChi and its interaction with a chitin oligomer. (A) Cartoon representation of the three-dimensional molecular model of AoChi, which was generated by homology modeling. Side chains of putative catalytic residues are shown as sticks. Disulfide bonds are colored orange. (B) Detailed view of a chito-oligosaccharide (yellow) docked in the substrate-binding cleft of AoChi. Side chains of AoChi residues that probably interact with the docked ligand through hydrogen bonds (represented as yellow dotted lines) are shown as sticks (cyan). N and O atoms are colored blue and red, respectively. (For interpretation of the references to color in this figure legend, the reader is referred to the Web version of this article.)
