Figure 6.
FIGURE 6. Arrangements of the ligand-binding sites of FD1 and MBL. Top (A) and side (B) views of arrangements of the ligand-binding sites on the FD1 trimer (magenta) and rat MBL (Protein Data Bank code 1KWV (48); slate). His-284, located on the predicted ligand-binding site in FD1, and the bound GlcNAc in rat MBL are shown as green spheres. The three binding sites of each trimer sit on the vertices of an equilateral triangle with each side about 50 Å in length.
