Conformational Differences in the Observed Crystal Structures of Saccharopine Reductase
Superposition of the Cα traces of apo saccharopine reductase (space group C2; magenta), apo saccharopine reductase (space group C2221; cyan), and the ternary complex (space group P21; yellow). The arrow points to areas of local structural differences in domain II

5. Figure 4 Active Site of Saccharopine Reductase
(a) Difference electron densities for the bound ligands, NADPH, and saccharopine, in the ternary complex with saccharopine reductase. The 2Fo–Fc difference electron-density map is contoured at 1.2σ.
(b) Stereoview of the active site of saccharopine reductase. Hydrogen bonds are indicated by dashed lines

6. Figure 5 Amino Acid Sequence of Saccharopine Reductase from M. grisea
Secondary-structure elements are marked as arrows (β strands) and filled rectangles (helices). The secondary-structure elements are colour-coded: domain I, blue; domain II, red; and domain III, green. Residues completely conserved in M. grisea, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Schizoaccharomyces pombe, Brassica napus (fragment), Arabidopsis thaliana, Caenorhabditis elegans, Homo sapiens, and Mus musculus are shown in red. Residues only conserved in the fungal enzymes are shown in blue

Interactions of the Bound Ligands with Protein Atoms at the Active Site of Saccharopine Reductase
Dotted lines indicate hydrogen bonds, and red rays show hydrophobic interactions. Invariant residues are marked by an asterisk. (a) The NADPH-binding site and (b) the saccharopine-binding site. Atoms are shown in standard colours
