Visualize and Manipulate Protein Structure Using Pymol: Chem 335 Physical Chemistry
1) HIV protease:
HIV protease interaction:
Leu- 508 mutation:
2) According to the HIV protease structure generated from pymol (fig. 1), the 26T residue is separated so
far apart from the ligand and thus suggests that it has very little or no catalytic activity.
