homology model of the catalytic subunit of human glutamate cysteine ligase. Examination of the model suggests that post-translational modifications of cysteine residues may be involved in the regulation of enzymatic activity Homo sapiens
structures of glutamate cysteine ligase in the presence of glutamate and MgCl2, to 2.1 A resolution, and in complex with glutamate, MgCl2, and ADP to 2.7 A resolution. Structures reveal an unusual binding pocket for the alpha-carboxylate of the glutamate substrate and an ATP-independent Mg2+ coordination site, clarifying the Mg2+-dependence of the enzymatic reaction Saccharomyces cerevisiae
