Figure 5 Molecular surface properties of the radixin FERM domain. (A) Surface electrostatic potentials of the radixin FERM domain viewed from the same direction as in Figure 2A. Positive (blue) and negative (red) potentials are mapped on the van der Waals surfaces. The IP3 molecule found in the complex crystal is shown in a stick model. (B) Surface electrostatic potentials viewed along the arrow b in (A) to show the basic cleft between subdomains A and C. The IP3 molecule found in the complex crystal is shown in a stick model. (C) Surface electrostatic potentials viewed along arrow c in (A) to show the acidic groove between subdomains B and C. (D) A backside view of surface electrostatic potentials seen in (A). The IP3 molecule found in the complex crystal is shown in a stick model. (E) Conserved residues of the radixin FERM domain mapped on the molecular surfaces. A front view of the radixin FERM domain depicted as a colored molecular surface using a gradient; orange indicates conserved identical residues and white non-conserved residues, while lighter shades of orange indicate semi-invariant residues. A view from the same direction as in (A) and Figure 2A. (F) Back view of conserved residues of the radixin FERM domain. (G) Front view of hydrophobic residues of the radixin FERM domain mapped on the molecular surfaces. (H) Back view of hydrophobic residues of the radixin FERM domain.
