Protein 1db1 is found to complex with 1,25 Dihydroxy . This molecule has three notable alcohol groups that have the ability to participate in interactions with the protein. Vitamin D3 has a large number of relations with the residues on the protein chain. First in the sequence are . Tyr143, shown in blue, is the closest to the ligand at 2.83 angstroms. This is sightly large but there is still the possibility of hydrogen bonding. Tyr147 in green and Phe150 in black are also known to have interactions with Vitamin D3 they are farther away and therefore less significant. Outline: as has been started, the interactions of the various residues will be covered. The types of bonds that 1db1 and VDX form will be elaborated as well

Quiz question: More information is needed to focus what the quiz should be about. Possibly related to how the secondary structure is comprised almost entirely of alpha helices, and how that relates to the amino acid sequences.
