Figure 2: Superposition of the complexed components with the free structures (C alpha-trace). a, sFc RIII in complexed form (cyan) was superimposed with a least square algorithm using the C atoms of the first domain onto the structure of sFc RIII obtained from sFc RIII crystals (magenta). Trp 95 and Tyr 14 which form a new hydrogen bond upon complex formation are shown in ball and stick representation b, Overlay of the hFc1 structures obtained from the complex (cyan) and from hFc1 crystals (magenta). For the superposition the C atoms of both C 3 domains were used. The orientation of the structures is the same as in Fig. 1a.
