Figure 3. Molecular Interface between DDX6-C and EDC3-FDF
DDX6-C (gray) and EDC3-FDF (salmon) are shown as ribbons with selected side-chain and main-chain atoms as sticks (oxygens in red, nitrogens in blue, sulfurs in yellow). Fixed water molecules are shown as red spheres and hydrogen bonds and salt bridges as dotted lines.
(A) Interactions of the N-terminal loop, the FDF motif, and α helix H1. The four residues mutated in DDX6-C^Mut-1 have boxed labels.
(B) Interactions of the N-terminal loop, the FDF motif, and α helix H1. β strand β8 is drawn as a loop for clarity.
(C) Interactions of the FDK motif and α helix H2. Equivalent residues mutated in Me31B^Mut-2 have boxed labels.
