Figure 5. Solution structure of human U1C. A, Stereo ribbon representation of the lowest-energy structure. A blue arrow indicates the b-strands and a red coil indicates the helical region. Some aromatic residues including the two tyrosine residues (Y5 and Y12) on the b-strands as well as the Zn-coordinating residues (Cys6, Cys9, His24 and His30) are indicated. B, The surface representation of U1C with surface electrostatic potential. The surface formed by the three a-helices displays many positively charged amino acid residues. Blue, positively charged; red, negatively charged. C, The b-strand surface rich in aromatic and negatively charged amino acid residues. Figures were drawn using MOLSCRIPT[53.] and GRASP. [54.]
