Figure 3.
Fig. 3. DNA contact interface. Recognition helix of mNanHD (yellow) and Msx1 (blue) and the DNA from the Msx1–DNA complex structure are shown in the cartoon depiction. Side chains of residues found at positions K43(mNanHD)/T43(Msx1), T47(mNanHD)/I47(Msx1), Q50, N51, and M54(mNanHD)/A54 (Msx1) and nucleotides of the T[1]A[2]A[3]T[4]T[5]G[6] motif as found in the Msx1 structure are shown in the ball-and-stick representation (PDB ID 1ig7).
