Figure 8. Stereo view of the back- bone atoms of N-SH3 residues Ala5 to Asp23 and Lys50 to Ile53. The Figure shows the SH3 conserved ``AXD'' sequence (Ala5 to Phe9), the variable RT-loop (resi- dues Lys10 to Ser18) including the 3 10 helix-like turn at Ala13 to Glu16, the type II turn at the SH3 conserved ``RGD'' loop (Arg21 to Asp23), and the conserved 310 helix (Lys50 to Ile53). Backbone (N, C a , C) atoms (gray); HN (light blue, unprotected from solvent exchange; blue, protected from solvent exchange); O (pink, non-H-bond acceptor; red, H-bond acceptor); side-chain carbon atoms (white); side-chain oxygen atoms (magenta). The side-chains of residues that participate in H-bonds (Asp8, Ser18, and Asp23) are shown (see the text). H-bonds are depicted as colored broken lines: included in the structure calculations as restraints (green); not included as restraints but amide proton donor protected from solvent exchange and H-bond observed in at least 75% of the chemical shift refined structures (yel- low); same as yellow but amide proton donor not protected from solvent exchange (white). This Figure was made with the program INSIGHTII (Molecular Simulations, San Diego CA).
