Three-dimensional computer model of Citrate Synthase
Generated by Dr. Manuel C. Peitsch at the Glaxo Institute for Molecular Biology in Geneva, Switzerland, the computer model of the protein molecule, citrate synthase, demonstrates strings of amino acids, represented in the twisted blue ribbons. The orange clump of spheres is a citrate ion; the red cluster is Coenzyme A (2-aminoethanethiol and pantothenic acid; the purple section is Coenzyme A (ADP 3’-phosphate).
