Cofactor

Cofactor Comment Organism Structure
FAD binding domain at the N-terminus comprising residues 23-166 Anopheles stephensi
NADPH dependent on, the Gly-X-Gly-X-X-Gly motif, residues 27-32, and the hydrophobic amino acid residues at positions 23, 25, 36, 39, 46, and 48 are indispensable for correct folding of the beta1-alpha-beta2-structure of the dinucleotide binding domain Anopheles stephensi
