Figure 2.
FIGURE 2. Structure-based sequence alignment of the six ankyrin repeats of TRPV2. A, a consensus ankyrin repeat sequence (16) is shown at the top, with designating a non-polar residue and x any residue. -Helices are red and 3[10] helices blue. Residues identical to consensus counterparts are boxed gray, showing a high level of conservation of a glycine at the second position and aliphatic residues in the inner and outer helices. The numbers in the last column are the lengths of inner/outer helices. B, superposition of repeats 1–4 of TRPV2-ARD (gold) and ankyrin (red, 1N11 (27); repeats 16–21 shown) highlights the large twist between repeats 4 and 5 of TRPV2-ARD.
