A , The amino acid sequences of AllD are compared with members of the NAD(P)H-dependent oxidoreductase family with known structures: TMLDH annotated as Thermus thermophilus HB8 Type 2 malate/lactate dehydrogenase (1VBI; Z-score, 45.3; rmsd , 1.5 Å), AMDH annotated as Agrobacterium tumefaciens malate dehydrogenase (1Z2I; Z-score, 44.3; rmsd , 1.5 Å), SLDH for Methanocaldococcus
l -sulfolactate dehydrogenase (2X06; Z-score, 41.6; rmsd , 1.9 Å) [23], PMDH annotated as Pyrococcus horikoshii OT3 malate dehydrogenase (1V9N; Z-score, 41.1; rmsd , 1.6 Å), EMDH annotated as Entamoeba histolytica malate dehydrogenase (3I0P; Z-score, 40.6; rmsd , 2.1 Å), DpkA for Pseudomonas syringae Δ 1 -piperideine-2-carboxylate/Δ 1 -pyrroline-2-carboxylate reductase (2CWF; Z-score, 37.4; rmsd , 2.2 Å) [24], EMLDH annotated as E. coli malate/ l -lactate dehydrogenases (2G8Y; Z-score, 37.0; rmsd , 2.4 Å), YiaK for E. coli 2,3-diketo- l -gulonate reductase (1S20; Z-score, 36.1; rmsd , 2.7 Å) [25]. Highly conserved residues are shown in red and boxed in blue; strictly conserved residues are shown on a red background.…”
