Figure 1. Structure of TCR 172.10 in Complex with I-A^u/MBP1-11(A) Ribbon representation of the complex including 172.10Vα (red), 172.10Vβ (blue), I-A^u (green), and MBP residues 1–8 (yellow). The CDR loops from 172.10 are colored as follows: CDR1α (magenta), CDR2α (pink), CDR3α (red), CDR1β (maroon), CDR2β (cyan), and CDR3β (blue).(B) Side view (turned 90° from [A]) of the complex. MBP peptide is shown as a transparent molecular surface (yellow) with ball-and-stick representations of amino acids inside, including the leader peptide (gray). The β1 helix from I-A^u is in the front, and the α1 helix is behind the peptide.(C) 172.10 footprint showing docking orientation on I-A^u/MBP1-11. Peptide-MHC is shown as a green surface (peptide in yellow, leader residues in gray), and the 172.10 CDR loops are drawn as tubes and labeled. This and all subsequent figures were produced with PyMol (Delano, 2002).
