Figure 1 (A) RIBBONS (Carson, 1991) representation of the
OspC-HB19 dimer. The two monomers are colored red and green,
respectively. The close proximity of the two inner most helices
indicates that it is a tight dimer. (B) Topology diagram of the
OspC-HB19 monomer. Red cylinders represent -helices
and green arrows -strands.
(C) The dimeric interface. Residues interacting across the
2-fold axis are shown as a ball-and-stick model. For clarity
only 1
and 1'
helices are shown. (D) Superposition of Borrelia OspC-HB19
(green) and Salmonella AR (magenta) monomers. The r.m.s.d.
between 122 aligned C atoms
is 3.0 Å. Alignment was carried out with SCOP (Murzin et al.,
1995).
