Schematic view of the protein 3D-model structures of a cel12B with β-jelly roll topology shown in the gray-ramped illustration. The predicted acid/base catalytic residues, Glu158 and Glu246, are shown in purple and fuchsia ball and stick representations in distinguishing from that of yellow, blue, green, gold, red, aqua, brown, white, and violet representations for Trp56, Tyr92, Trp142, Met160, Trp162, Pro170, Ala171, Ile192, Trp200, and Phe248 catalytic residues, respectively. b cel8C with α-barrel-fold architecture of six (α/α) helices structure shown as inner and outer layers of pinkish cartoon representations. The predicted catalytic residues, Glu55 and Asp243, are shown in the groove center in green and blue ball and stick representations in distinguishing from that of red and black representations for Tyr244 and Phe335 catalytic residues, respectively. c peh28 with right-handed β-helical-fold of ten full turns showing the gray-ramped cartoon representation. The predicted catalytic residues, Asp228, Asp249, Asp250, and His277, are shown in the upper area within the T-loop region with blue, red, purple, and green ball and stick representations in distinguishing from that are shown in the bottom-sided area with yellow, aqua, gold, violet, lime, white, and brown representations for Ser27, Asp28, Ser29, Arg30, Asn237, Asn265, Asn290 catalytic residues, respectively. Cys115 and Trp160 residues at the peripheral loop region, and Asn370, Val367, Val368, Trp351, and Val330 at the C-terminus are seen as red, yellow, black, blue, orange, white, and green stick representations, respectively. d Peh28 showing the alignment confidence values with endo-polygalacturonase I protein template of van Pouderoyen et al. [54]. High alignment values are shown in red and yellow representations, while the green displayed areas are of moderate alignment values according to Phyre2-model alignment investigation, [30]. The space-filling representations shown in the side and the center of the T-loop region are of Arg96+ and the catalytic residues of peh28, respectively. Those residues are at a high degree of alignment with those of polygalacturonase I as indicated by the yellow-colored representation shown in their displayed areas
