The crystal structure of LigT with 2 0 -AMP was superimposed on the corresponding complex of CNPase, in order to distinguish common and divergent ligand binding determinants in 2H enzymes. Structural data [29] from these enzymes incidate that the 2 0 ,5 0 -adenosine bisphophate substrate binds along the opposite side of the active site, compared to LigT and CNPase (Fig 7A) . As the different structures predicted an RNA-binding surface on LigT, we further modeled a 3-residue RNA molecule with a terminal 2 0 -phosphate into the active site. ./cache/cord-002398-0a3okta0.txt ./txt/cord-002398-0a3okta0.txt
