Figure 2. Superposition of the a-carbon backbone of the original engineered monomer, Cro K56-[DGEVK], in black on the mutant monomer, Cro K56-[DGEVK]-F58W. One of the two crystallographically independent copies of the mutant structure (chain A) is shown in gray and the other with open bonds. This superposition, as well as for all other such Figures, is based on the a-carbon atoms of residues 5-40 which includes the a-helical core region and the helix-turn-helix.
