title: X-ray studies of the binding of Cibacron blue F3GA to liver alcohol dehydrogenase.
abstract: The binding of Cibacron F3GA to orthorhombic crystals of liver alcohol dehydrogenase has been studied to 0.37-nm resolution. Similarities in the binding of this dye were found for rings B, C and D with the binding of the coenzyme NAD+. However, ring A of the dye and the nicotinamide ribose part of the coenzyme are quite differently bound to the enzyme.
