Januvia is an aromatic compound with a terminal polar trifluorophenyl group and a trifluoromethyl group. DPP-4 consists of a hydrophobic serine (S1) pocket and other hydrogen bonding residues. Residues of importance for binding purposes between the enzyme DPP-4 and Januvia include the catalytic triad (Ser630, His740, and Asp708) and two glutamates (Glu205 and Glu206). | Januvia is an aromatic compound with a terminal polar trifluorophenyl group and a trifluoromethyl group.
