Figure 2. (Upper panel) Relaxed stereodiagram of an overlay of the turn 1 region in the wild-type FGF-1 structure (light gray) with that of the G19 mutant (dark gray). Also shown is a 2F[o] - F[c] difference electron density map of the G19 mutant contoured at 1.5 . Turn 1 has converted from type I 4:6 in the wild-type structure to a type I 3:5 in the G19 mutant. (Middle panel) Relaxed stereodiagram of an overlay of the turn 5 region in the wild-type FGF-1 structure (light gray) with that of the E60 mutant (dark gray). Also shown is a 2F[o] - F[c] difference electron density map of the E60 mutant contoured at 1.5 . Turn 5 has converted from type I 4:6 in the wild-type structure to a type I 3:5 in the E60 mutant. (Lower panel) Relaxed stereodiagram of an overlay of the turn 1 region in the G19 mutant structure (light gray) with that of the S17T/N18T/ G19 mutant (dark gray). Also shown is a 2F[o] - F[c] difference electron density map of the S17T/N18T/ G19 mutant contoured at 1.5 . The S17T/N18T mutations in the turn 1 region are accommodated with essentially no change to the turn structure in the G19 mutant background.
