Figure 11.
Figure 11. Comparison of refined NMR solution structure of b-Pol to the gapped DNA b-Pol crystal structure. Ribbon overlay for residues 13-80 of a representative structure (#1) and the gapped DNA crystal structure of DNA polymerase b. The ribbon for the NMR solution structure is shown in red while the crystal structure is shown in green. Side-chains for residues H34, K35, Y39, K60, K68 and K72 which have been shown to be important for DNA binding and/or catalysis are shown in magenta for the NMR structure and light green in the crystal structure. Gapped DNA from the crystal structure is shown in blue.
