Figure 5 Schematic views of the VavS -GrbS A interface. (A) The molecular surface of VavS is shown as a transparent worm with the VavS -GrbSA interface close to the viewer. The VavS residues at the interface are drawn as green rods. For clarity, some residues that interact minimally with GrbS A are omitted (His634, Cys652, Val655 and His 656). The polypeptide backbone of the N-terminal tail derived from the expression vector is traced as a dotted line in white. (B) The side chains (rods) and polypeptide backbone (magenta tubes) of the GrbS residues at the interface are superposed on VavS. (C) The molecular surfaces of the Abl (left) (Musacchio et al., 1994) and Hck (right) (Sicheri et al., 1997) SH3 domains are shown in the same orientation as that of VavS in (A) and (B). Only the regions corresponding to residues 595 -659 of VavS are shown.
