Pink and blue highlight the (alpha/beta)8 barrel structure of AKR's.
Cofactor (NADP+) shown in wireframe and colored CPK.
The residues Glu227, Lys274, Ser275, Asn276, Arg280 have sidechains shown in wireframe and colored green. 
Glu227-Changes its interactions with the cofactor depending upon if the cofactor is NAD or NADP, it has water-mediated reaction with the 3’ alcohol group on the ribose.
Lys274-interacts with the 2’ alcohol group on the NADP ribose but does not interact with the NAD cofactor
Ser275- interacts with an oxygen on the NADP ribose’s phosphate group but does not interact with the NAD cofactor
Asn276-hydrogen bonding interactions with the different cofactors change when the cofactor changes
Arg280-changes position and interacts differently with the two types of cofactors.
