Figure 3. Comparison of FERM F3 and PTB Domain InteractionsStereo Cα plot comparing the F3 subdomain of talin and the integrin sequence (red), the F3 subdomain of moesin and the β strand of the C-terminal tail (green), and the PTB domain of X11 with the β-APP bound (blue). The structures were superposed by aligning the Cα atoms of 39 residues in the β sandwich. The ligands are shown as thick lines. The tyrosine sidechains of the NPxY motifs of integrin and β-APP are also shown. For clarity, insertions in the X11 structure absent in FERM domains are not shown. Residue numbering is for talin.
