Figure 1. LIR-1 D1D2 Crystal Structure(A) Ribbon diagram of the structure of LIR-1 D1D2. Disulfide bonds are shown in yellow, and dashed lines indicate disordered loops. Arrow indicates the location of the bond between residues 99 and 100, which can be proteolitically cleaved to generate stable fragments corresponding to D1 and D2 ([10]).(B) Topology diagram of LIR-1 D1D2. β strands are blue, 3[10] helices are green, and polyproline type II helices are red.(C) Stereoview of LIR-1 D1 (green) superimposed upon KIR2DL1 ([16]) (red). N and C termini of LIR-1 D1D2 are labeled. Cα atoms of the D1 domains of each structure were superimposed, illustrating the slight displacement of the D2 domains. Root mean square deviation (r.m.s.d) values for superpositions: 0.92 Å (71 Cα atoms) (LIR-1 D1 and KIR2DL1 D1), 1.25 Å (88 Cα atoms) (LIR-1 D2 and KIR2DL1 D2), 1.36 Å (67 Cα atoms) (LIR-1 D1 and LIR-1 D2).(D) LIR-1 D1D2 model in the region of the D1 3[10] helix superimposed on a 2.1 Å 2|F[obs]| − |F[calc]| annealed omit electron density map contoured at 1.0σ (map radius, 3.5 Å).
