Barrel‐shaped : The enzyme MoeO5 catalyzes the transfer of the C 15 moiety of farnesyl pyrophosphate to the 2‐hydroxy group of 3‐phosphoglycerate to give 2‐( Z , E )‐farnesyl‐3‐phosphoglycerate (FPG; ligand in the center of the shown structure). X‐ray crystallographic structures showed that MoeO5 forms a triose‐phosphate‐isomerase barrel structure and binds FPG in a curved pocket, mainly as a result of its long λ3 loop (magenta in picture).
