1EBF, 1EBU - PubMed Abstract: 
The structure of the antifungal drug target homoserine dehydrogenase (HSD) was determined from Saccharomyces cerevisiae in apo and holo forms, and as a ternary complex with bound products, by X-ray diffraction. The three forms show that the enzyme is a dimer, with each monomer composed of three regions, the nucleotide-binding region, the dimerization region and the catalytic region ...
