Figure 1. Overall structure of double-hexamer of N-mtMCM. a,
Side view of the double-hexamer structure. Each monomer is
represented by a discrete color. The -helices
are represented by cylinders; and -strands,
by arrows. The 12 Zn atoms (magenta) are located in the middle
of the double hexamer, mediating hexamer -hexamer interactions.
The figure was generated with MolScript44. b, A surface
representation of the double hexamer, showing a dumbbell-like
shape. The figure was generated with GRASP45. c, The packing of
the double hexamers in the crystal, viewed along the two-fold
and normal to the three-fold crystallographic axis. Three
consecutive double hexamers (in blue, magenta and green) are
stacked end-to-end against each other.
