Figure 3.
Fig. 3. Specific bends from alanine staggers at low
coiled-coil radii, and holes and variable bends from isolated
core alanines at high radii. The graph shown is the coiled-coil
radius at the location of each residue of MidTm. The letters on
the graph are the one-letter code of the local core side chain;
the printed size of the letter correlates with the mass of the
side chain, and the color of the graph indicates whether the
 -helices have a local
axial stagger greater than (blue) or less than (red) 1.0
Å. The cartoons depict different bends in the coiled coil
(see Results); -helices are depicted
by straight or curved rectangles, and their coiling around one
another is not shown for clarity. See also Fig. 6 and ref. 22.
