Figure 7.
Figure 7. Two-dimensional schematic representation of the contacts observed in the NHERF PDZ1 binding pocket. PDZ1 residues (orange) making hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic contacts with the peptide ligand (purple) are shown in ball-and-stick representation. Carbon atoms are shown in white, oxygen atoms in red, and nitrogen atoms in blue. Water molecules are shown as green spheres. Hydrogen bonds are depicted as broken lines and numbers indicate distances in Å. Val76 involved in hydrophobic interaction with the C^d2 atom of Leu0 is shown as an arc with radial spokes. The Figure was generated using the program LIGPLOT[49].
