Figure 5. A model for CLP polymer binding with F-actin and
other proteins. (A) CLP polymer and F-actin have the same
repeating distance. The morphologies of the two polymers match
each other very well. Its long flexible C-terminal arm may help
CLP binding other molecules. (B) A model for CLP polymer binding
with F-actin. (C) CLP-F-actin copolymer binding with other
proteins (red). The F-actin diagram is provided by Amy McGough
(Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, TX). The models in B and C
were prepared with Photoshop, and the charged surface model and
the CPK (red) model were prepared with SPDBV and MOLSCRIPT,
respectively.
