Figure 4. Nucleotide Binding by Cdc6A) Comparison of Cdc6 with various AAA^+ proteins. NSF-D2, Cdc6, and δ′ are shown in ribbon representation and colored cyan, green/red, and gold. Mg•ATP and Mg•ADP are shown bound to NSF-D2 and Cdc6, respectively, as black ball-and-stick. Structural comparisons between the AAA^+ regions of Cdc6, NSF-D2, and δ' can be made by using the core regions with sequence similarity as an additional guide: domain I of Cdc6 has an overall rmsd of 1.7 Å and 1.8 Å (spanning 100 and 79 residues) to NSF-D2, and δ′, respectively; domain II of Cdc6 superposes with the equivalent regions of NSF and δ' to 1.3 Å and 1.2 Å rmsd over 25 and 21 amino acids. Global rmsds spanning both domains are similar to individual domain rmsds for NSF-D2 and Cdc6 but are markedly different for cdc6 and δ′ (2.0 Å rmsd over 125 residues for NSF-D2 compared to 2.5 Å rmsd over 100 residues for δ′).(B) Stereogram view of the nucleotide binding region. Secondary structure is shown as a white coil. Residues within 4 Å of bound Mg•ADP are shown as gray ball-and-stick and are labeled; the one exception is His-167, which is part of the conserved sensor I motif but lies 5 Å away from the β-phosphate group. ADP is colored as magenta ball-and-stick, and the Mg^2+ ion and coordinating waters are shown as black and red spheres, respectively. Hydrogen bonds are shown as dashed lines. Backbone nitrogen atoms are shown as blue spheres and are exaggerated in size for emphasis.(A) and (B) generated by RIBBONS ([10]).
