Figure 2. A, Stereo view of the bundle of 20 energy-minimized CYANA conformers representing the structure of neurabin[986-1056] (PDB ID 2GLE). The superposition is the best fit of the backbone atoms N, C^ , C of residues 4-70. Side chains with low local RMSD (<0.7) within the bundle are shown in cyan. Side chains of residues with high local RMSD (>0.7) are shown in green. Backbones are shown in dark blue. Aromatic heavy side chains are colored in orange. The local RMSD of Trp7, Trp15, Tyr24, and Phe28 are 0.31, 0.11, 0.87, and 0.62, respectively. B, Electrostatic surface of the neurabin SAM domain (left) and 180° rotation around x-axes (right). Red represents negative charges and blue positive charges. C, Ribbon presentation of the closest conformer to the mean coordinates of the bundle of 20 conformers used to represent the NMR structure of the neurabin SAM (left) and the shank3 SAM domain (right). The regular secondary structure elements are identified.
