NAD+ binding by MtHDH. NAD+ (salmon) is contoured with the F o  − F c omit map (green mesh) at 4 σ level. The product, His (gray C atoms, ball-and-stick), mimics the position of HOL. Hydrogen bonds between the protein and NAD+ atoms are shown as dashed black lines, whereas the solid black line represents the path of hydride transfer. Residues from domain II are semitransparent, whereas those from domain IV* are yellow. Italicised re and si indicate the two prochiral faces of the C4 atom of nicotinamide.
