Structure of CspLOX2. (A) The overall structure of CspLOX2 is depicted with its putative substrate-binding channel calculated by Caver 3.0 shown in blue and the catalytic iron as orange sphere. (B) The catalytic iron is coordinated by five amino acids and a water/hydroxide in an octahedral geometry. The 2mFo-DFc electron density map is contoured at 4 σ. The red dashed lines highlight coordination geometry of the metal ion.
