Figure 6.
Fig. 6. Representation of the shape of decorin core protein based on the x-ray scattering profile shown in Fig. 5. Two orthogonal orientations are shown on the left hand side. In order to put the size and conformation of the restored shape into perspective, a simple model based on the crystal structure of YopM (34) is presented in the form of a ribbon showing two monomers arranged as intertwined C shapes on the right hand side. Scale bar represents 25 Å.
