Figure 1.
Figure 1: Structure of the Skp1-Skp2 complex. Skp1 is shown in blue and Skp2 is shown in red. The boundaries of the BTB/POZ fold, the C-terminal helical extension of Skp1 and of the F-box, the three non-canonical LRRs, the seven canonical LRRs and the C-terminal tail of Skp2 are shown in the diagram below the structure. The 100-residue N-terminal Skp2 region missing from the crystallized protein is indicated (dashed line). The second LRR has a partially disordered loop instead of the helix characteristic of LRRs.
