Figure 2. Key Interactions at the Sse1p·ATP-Hsp70N Interface
(A) Closeup view of the contacts between subdomain IIb of Hsp70N and the 3HBD of Sse1p.
(B) Contact interface in the vicinity of the Sse1p-bound ATP molecule.
(C) Region of close surface complementarity between Sse1p and subdomain Ia of Hsp70N.
In (A)–(C), both protein backbones are shown in ribbon representation with the exception of regions involved in intermolecular contacts. These regions and the corresponding side chains are depicted in stick representation. Sse1p is enveloped in a transparent molecular surface to highlight the close surface complementarity. The color coding for molecular surfaces, backbone, and carbon atoms is identical to that in Figure 1A. Sse1p-bound ATP is represented in a ball-and-stick model with carbon atoms colored in yellow. Nitrogen and oxygen atoms are indicated in blue and red, respectively. Ordered water molecules bridging the binding partners are shown as beige spheres. Hydrogen bonds are represented as dashed lines. Key interacting residues are indicated. In all panels, unrelated obstructing features in the foreground were omitted for clarity.
(D) Alignment of Hsp110, Hsp70, and DnaK amino acid sequences at the contact region between the 3HBD of Sse1p and subdomain IIb of Hsp70N. Contacting residues are indicated below the sequence with the interacting domain indicated by the color scheme used in Figure 1A. Notable differences in the consensus sequences for Hsp110s and canonical Hsp70s are boxed. An unabridged version of the alignment is shown in Figure S5.
(E) Sequence alignment of residues involved in the contact close to the nucleotide-binding pocket of Sse1p.
