Figure 1.
(a) Two IL-15–IL-15R complexes in the asymmetric unit of the P2[1]2[1]2 crystal form. One IL-15 molecule (magenta) forms a complex with one IL-15R molecule (cyan), which then associates with another complex of IL-15 (blue) and IL-15R (red). These two complexes have a noncrystallographic twofold relationship. (b) Superposition of dimers of IL-15–IL15R complexes from the P2[1]2[1]2 (red) and P2[1]2[1]2[1] (blue) crystals.
