Figure 4. Mutations Mapped onto Surface of Site 2Left: surface of CR1 vert, similar 15–17 using color scheme (red, 15; cyan, 16; blue, 17), except where mutagenesis yielded no significant loss of C3b (iC3) binding or C4b binding (black), some loss of C3b (iC3) binding (aa 937, 1053) or C4b binding (aa 927, 929, 1046) (yellow), or major loss of C3b and/or C4b binding (white). Single asterisk indicates residues that, when incorporated at their equivalent positions in site 1 (i.e., D109N, N29K, and T14K), caused gain of C3b binding. Double asterisk indicates two residues (Y27S/G79D) that confer C3b binding activity when simultaneously inserted at their equivalent positions in site 1.Right: same features but rotated (about vertical axis) by 180°.
