===Catalytic Domain=== | ===Catalytic Domain=== | ||
Many of the MMPs share similar catalytic domain structures and this holds up for MMP-1. The Catalytic Domain is about 160 amino acid residues in length with the catalytic zinc ion residing in the C-terminal segment of this domain. The Domain consists of three α-helices, a highly twisted five-stranded β-sheet, and three calcium-binding sites, which are used for ligand binding. Except for one calcium that is held within monomer A, all of the calcium ions are coordinated with either four or five liganding residues. | Many of the MMPs share similar catalytic domain structures and this holds up for MMP-1. <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_478/2clt_active_site/1'>The Catalytic Domain</scene> is about 160 amino acid residues in length with the catalytic zinc ion residing in the C-terminal segment of this domain.
