FIGURE 1. Crystal structure of the p38 -MK2 heterodimer. A,
side view of the p38 -MK2 heterodimer. P38
(yellow) and MK2
(magenta) are positioned "face to face" in the heterodimer,
which means that the ATP-binding sites and the substrate binding
grooves are at the interface of the heterodimer. The K-helix
of the MK2 C-terminal regulatory domain (blue) is sandwiched
between the p38 and MK2 kinase domains,
whereas residues 370–393 of the C-terminal regulatory domain
bind p38 in the docking groove.
B, heterodimer rotated 180°. C, top view of the heterodimer.
