Moreover, this protein can be found as a monomer or a dimer, thanks to a specific motif which is EALYK between the 60th and the 64th amino acids. There are intermolecular salt bridges involving E60 and K64, in order to fix the second monomer. The CXXS domain is on the opposite side to avoid any disulfide exchange. Nevertheless, the dimeric structure is oxidation-dependent which means that C81 is necessary. | Moreover, this protein can be found as a monomer or a dimer, thanks to a specific motif which is EALYK between the 60th and the 64th amino acids.
