| Additional Comments | The sequence similarity to an MCE of known structure was high enough to permit a three-dimensional model to be built, suggesting conservation of ligand and metal binding sites. Comparison with corresponding sequences from a variety of organisms shows more than 1/6 of the sequence is completely conserved. |
