Find PDB structures and Computed Structure Models (CSM) by combining queries from tools in this suite: Attribute Search, Sequence Similarity, Sequence Motif, 3D Similarity, and 3D Motif with 'AND' logic.
R67-plasmid encoded dihydrofolate reductase (R67-DHFR) from Escherichia coli catalyses the reduction of 7,8-dihydrofolate (DHF) to 5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate (THF) in the presence of NADPH. It is one of the smallest enzymes known to self-assemble into an active quaternary structure. The tetramer has an unusual pore, 25 angstroms in length that passes through the middle of the molecule and out the other side. R67-DHFR has 222 symmetry, and has a distinctive 'one site fits both' substrate and cofactor.
