FIGURE 3. C-terminal extended loop packed to the HRDC core. A,a stick model represents carbon atoms of the nine C-terminal residues (1227–1235, labeled with one-letter codes) shown in cyan, whereas the other part of the domain including N-terminal extended helix 1 is in green. The composite-omit density map (25) for the C-terminal residues is shown at the contour level of 1 . The orientation is similar to that in Fig. 2A (top view). B, schematic representation depicting the interactions between the C-terminal extended loop (cyan) and HRDC core, including helix 1(green). Hydrogen bonds are shown as dashed lines with distances (Å) shown. Two hydrophobic pockets on the HRDC core (pocket-1 formed by side chains from Thr^1152, Phe^1222, Cys^1223, and Asn^1226, and pocket-2 formed by Met^1190, Pro^1192, Asn^1197, Ile^1201, and Arg^1200) that are important for the binding of C-terminal residues are indicated.
