Fig. 2. Structure of FliI( 1–18). (A) C^ ribbon drawing of FliI( 1–18). All of the secondary structure elements are labeled as in Fig. 1. The linker connecting the N-terminal and ATPase domains, which is missing in the model, is indicated by a dashed line. (B) Close-up stereoview of the nucleotide-binding site. The bound ADP is colored green, and the residues interacting with ADP are shown in cyan. Conserved residues involved in catalysis are indicated by yellow. (C–F) Comparison of the relative domain orientation. FliI( 1–18) (cyan) is superimposed onto the F[1]- subunits in various states, for which only corresponding atoms in the ATPase domain were used for fitting: (C) [E] (green), (D) [TP] (magenta), (E) [DP] (yellow) in 1BMF (21), and (F) [ADP+Pi] (red) in 1H8E (22).
