Figure 3: Recognition of GA[3] by GID1A. a, A top view of the GID1A-bound GA[3]. GID1A residues that contact GA[3] are highlighted in yellow (the core domain) or cyan (the N-terminal extension) and shown as stick models with van der Waals surfaces (dots) and hydrogen bonds (dotted lines). Omit electron density for GA[3] is shown in 3.5 contour (red). b, A side view showing nonpolar contacts between N-terminal extension helix b and the GA[3] aliphatic rings. c, A top view of the hydroxyl groups of GA[3]. d, The bound GA[3] (green) superimposes onto GA[4] (pink) with a small root mean squared deviation (0.20 Å). Water molecules are shown as blue or red spheres.
