The <scene name='58/583418/B_chain/1'>B chain</scene> contains the active site of the protein and has numerous notable structural features. The active site is formed at the rims of two interacting 6 stranded <scene name='58/583418/Beta_barrel/2'>beta barrel domains</scene>(N-terminal barrel in red and C-terminal barrel in orange) which are surrounded by 4 helical regions and many turns.

The serine protease <scene name='58/583418/Catalytic_triad/1'>catalytic triad</scene>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalytic_triad wiki] residues, based on chymotrypsin numbering, are Ser195, His57, and Asp102. As is common with serine proteases, an <scene name='58/583418/Oxyanion_hole/2'>oxyanion hole</scene> hole is formed by backbone amides of Ser195 and Gly193.<ref name='seven'/> This has the functional role of stabilizing the oxyanion intermediate involved in the serine protease mechanism by hydrogen bonding to the oxygen of the P1 residue (standard substrate-protease nomeclature <ref>PMID: 22925665</ref>. In addition, since thrombin cleaves after Arg/Lys the <scene name='58/583418/S1/2'>S1 specificity site</scene>, formed by the 180s- and 220s- loops, has Asp189 at the base to form a salt bridge with the incoming substrate. Furthermore, the S4 binding pocket accommodates hydrophobic substrate residues.
