Serine protease active site of chymotrypsin, molecular model

---

Serine protease active site of chymotrypsin, molecular model. The active site of the digestive enzyme chymotrypsin is a triad of serine, histidine, and aspartate, shown here in ball-and-stick style. The serine protease motif is common among protease enzymes. Atoms are colour-coded: carbon is black, hydrogen is white, nitrogen is blue, and red is oxygen.
