Figure 2. Comparison of Human CD94 and Rat MBP-ACD94 is magenta and MBP-A (Brookhaven PDB entry 1RTM) is blue.(A) Loops 3 and 6 in CD94. Side chains displayed are those that play a prominent role in stabilizing loop 3. Acidic residues are red, basic residues are blue, and neutral residues are tan. Two salt bridges are designated by dotted lines.(B) Superposition of the Ca^2+-binding site of rat MBP-A with the same region in the human CD94 structure (loop 5 and β strand 6). Ca^2+-binding residues from MBP-A and potential Ca^2+-binding residues in CD94 are represented by ball-and-stick models.(C) Superimposed and separated ribbon diagrams of the C-type lectin domains from CD94 (left) and MBP-A (right).
