Figure 3.
Secondary autocleavage site of CA proteins. The interactions between pro-segment and protein residues in Y202L, precursor S170A, R226K, S170C, and E159Q. Those involved in hydrophobic interactions in S170A are superimposed in a transparent space-filling representation. Hydrogen bonds are indicated by dotted lines, and water molecules are represented as red spheres. The distances between the side chain of Glu-159 and the backbone carbon atom of Gly-160 via WAT1 in Y202L and R226K are highlighted by thick dotted lines.
