Figure 2 The structure of the heterodimer bound on the Ig B DNA. a, Ribbon drawing of the entire complex viewed down the DNA helical axis. The p50 subunit is in green and the p65 subunit is in red. The top strand of DNA is in pink, and the bottom strand is in yellow. Drawing produced with SETOR30. b, The hydrophobic core of the dimer interface between p50 (green) and p65 (red) consists of an array of nonpolar hydrocarbons, aromatic rings and uncharged polar residues pointing from the -sheets in towards the interface. Only the -strands and seven residues contributing to the interface are displayed. Oxygens (red) and nitrogens (dark blue) are included.
