Figure 1

ConSurf [7, 8] analysis of peptidoglycan and polysaccharide deacetylases of gram-positive cocci. The analysis involves the surface mapping of aligned amino acid sequences to the three-dimensional structure of S. pneumoniae PgdA (Protein Data Bank ID 2c1g). Highly conserved residues are shown in red (some are labeled for reference). These residues, conserved among the aligned proteins, are located within one region of the enzyme, surrounding the acetyl-binding groove.
