Fig. 3. Ubiquitin-binding Site 1 of Tom1-GAT. (A) Stereo ribbon representation of the interface between Site 1 of Tom1-GAT (red) and ubiquitin (blue), in the same view as Fig. 1A. Side chains of Tom1-GAT and ubiquitin directly involved in the interactions are shown in ball-and-stick models with labels. The salt bridge between Glu256 and Arg42 is indicated by a red line. (B) The molecular surface of ubiquitin is shown with a ribbon drawing of GAT, in the same view as (A). Hydrophobic residues of ubiquitin are colored green. Residues participating in the interaction are labeled. (C) The molecular surface of GAT is shown with a line drawing of ubiquitin, in the view rotated 180° about the vertical axis relative to (A).
