The Rossmann fold is a protein structural motif found in proteins that bind nucleotides, such as enzyme cofactors FAD, NAD, and NADP.The structure is composed of up to seven mostly parallel beta strands.The first two strands are connected by an Î±- helix. The structures of segments between additional strands vary greatly and may include structures such as short helical segments and coils.n 1989, Israel Hanukoglu from the Weizmann Institute of Science discovered that the consensus sequence for NADP binding site in some enzymes that utilize NADP differs from the NAD binding motif. This discovery was used to re-engineer coenzyme specificities of enzymes.
Folding and Fold Mountains. â¢ A fold is a bend in rock strata resulting from compression of an area of the Earthâs crust . â¢ The severity of compression is indicated by the tightness of the folds. â¢ In folding since the compressional force is acting towards the centre, the intervening land rises up in a series of folds. â¢ The arch or anticline of the folds, How folds are formed? Types of folds â¢ The folds are classified in the following types depending on the intensity of the 1.Symmetrical Folds â¢ When the compression is too intensive the land gets folded into gentle, simple folds called as symmetrical folds.
