Figure 3.
Figure 3. (a) Stereo view of cavities in Ag85C2 (gray) versus MPT51 (cyan) superimposed with the ribbon diagram of MPT51. The trehalose molecule of the structure of Ag85B[20.] is shown as a guide for the eye. (b) Stereo view of the superimposition of the structures of the effector domain of E. coli TreR[37.] (blue) and of the S. typhimurium glucose/galactose receptor[38.] (green) with MPT51 (gray). The trehalose-6-phosphate ligand of TreR (red rods) and the trehalose molecule (yellow) of the Ag85B structure are shown. (c) and (d) Surface diagrams of (c) MPT51 and (d) Ag85B colored according to sequence conservation (red=identity). The surface area corresponding to the fibronectin-binding loop is marked in green. The Figure was prepared using (a) SURFNET, [28.] (a) and (b) RIBBONS [53.] and (c) GRASP. [54.]
