Figure 1. The RARα–RXRαF318A LBD Heterodimer and Its Component Monomers(A) The dimeric arrangement of hRARα and mRXRαF318A LBDs is viewed perpendicular to the dimer axis. The secondary structural elements are labeled according to the nomenclature of other nuclear receptors ([38]). Helices (H) are represented as tubes; coil regions are colored in orange; β strands (s) in red. The dotted line in mRXRαF318A indicates the unmodeled region between H1 and H3. The ligands in hRARα (BMS614) and mRXRαF318A (oleic acid, OA) are represented in yellow.(B) Superposition of the hRARα/BMS614 complex from the heterodimer crystal structure and the hRARγ/T-RA monomer complex ([26]).(C) Superposition of the mRXRαF318A/OA LBD from the heterodimer crystal structure and the hRXRα/9C-RA LBD monomer crystal structure (P. Egea et al., submitted).(D) Superposition of the hRARα/BMS614 and the mRXRαF318A/OA LBD complexes, both from the heterodimer crystal structure.
