Figure 5.
Figure 5. Least-squares C^a superpositions of 9°N-7 and RB69 pols in the (a) palm subdomain or (b) exonuclease domain. The 9°N-7 pol backbone is shown in yellow, and its active-site carboxylate groups in gold. The RB69 pol backbone is drawn in green, and its active-site residues in magenta. The central b-sheet of the exonuclease domain is light blue (9°N-7 pol) or dark blue (RB69 pol) to allow tracking of the domain motion. The precise regions used in the palm and exonuclease superpositions are shown in Figure 4. The NH[2]-terminal domain has been omitted for clarity. Arrows in (a) indicate the direction of fingers and exonuclease movement when moving from (a) to (b).
