Figure 1B. A model of manganese (II) binding site, with its associated amino acids ligands, of engineered P. radiata MnP3. The Mn (II) (pink) at the edge of the heme propionate is surrounded by ligands, Glu40, Glu44 and Asp186.Image generated using WebLab Viewer (Accelrys) and the heme, Mn, and ligands obtained from crystal structure of versatile peroxidase from Pleurotuseryngii deposited in the protein Data Bank, entry code 3FJWA
