Figure 3. The N-src loop of nephrocystin SH3 is twisted by a noncanonical proline residue. Stereo view of the superimposed backbones of nephrocystin (green) and N-Crk SH3 (yellow; PDB entry: 1CKA). The two structures are very similar, with the exception of the N-Src loop, at the right. Proline 186, which induces a kink in nephrocystin, is shown in red. It corresponds to a position where a semiconserved Glu, Asp, or Asn residue is found in most SH3 domains.
