Figure 4. The DHODA dimer structure viewed from above the twofold axis. The orientation of subunit A is the same as that of Figure 3. Secondary structure elements are coloured according to B factor: residues with B factors below 20 Å2 are dark blue and residues with B factors above 40 Å2 are bright red. The three cavities inside the dimer are shown as probe occupied volumes, as calculated by the program VOIDOO [40] using a probe radius of 1.2 Å. The two cavities above the flavin molecules are coloured magenta, while the intersubunit void is shown in orange. The two water molecules inside the central void are shown as green spheres. The intersubunit Glu206-Lys296 salt bridges are shown in ball-and-stick representation. (Figure produced using the programs BOBSCRIPT and RASTER3D.)
