Figure 1.
Figure 1. Crystal structure of mRNA decapping enzyme (DcpS) from Mouse. (A) Stereo ribbon diagram of Mouse DcpS color-coded from N-terminus (blue) to C-terminus (red) showing the domain organization with helices H1-H13 and -strands 1- 14, as well as -sheets A, B, C, and D. (B) Diagram showing the secondary structure elements in Mouse DcpS (chain A) superimposed on its primary sequence. The -sheet strands are indicated by a red A, B, C, and D. -bulges and -turns are indicated. -hairpins are depicted as red loops. Disordered regions are depicted by a dashed line with the corresponding sequence in brackets. The HIT sequence motif is indicated by a black line above the three histidines.
