Figure 3.
Fig. 3. The structural epitope for binding to YADS1 (A) or YADS2 (B) mapped on the molecular surface of hVEGF. The structural epitope consists of hVEGF residues that make contact with one or more residues of the Fab, with "contact" defined as a distance <4.1 Å. Residues that contact the heavy or light chain are colored green or yellow, respectively. The dashed line outlines the structural epitope for binding to Flt-1[D2], as determined from a previously described x-ray structure (PDB code 1FLT [PDB] ) (34).
