Figure 2. (A) Ribbon diagrams of ZNF593 (PDB code: 1zr9), the second zinc finger of dsRNA-ZFa (residues 94 --128) (PDB code: 1zu1), the C-terminal zinc finger of MBP-1 (residues 30 --57) (PDB code: 1bbo), and ZFY-swap (PDB code: 7znf). (B) Multiple sequence alignments demonstrating residue conservation between similar zinc fingers. (Green residues) Conserved amino acids. (C) Positively charged residues located on the solvent-exposed side of the [alpha]-helix are compared between ZNF593 and double-stranded RNA-binding protein ZFa.
