Figure 1.
Fig. 1. Structure of E. coli GGT. (a) Ribbon drawing of the GGT heterodimer. The L subunit is colored blue, and the S subunit is colored green. (b) Ribbon drawing of the L subunit. (c) Ribbon drawing of the S subunit. -Helices and -strands are labeled. In each of the L and S subunits, the N terminus is blue and the C terminus is red, with intermediate colors following the distance in the sequence from the N terminus. The N-terminal residue of the S subunit (Thr-391) is shown with a stick model. (d) A topology diagram of E. coli GGT. Circle, triangle, and square indicate -helix, -strand, and insertion not conserved among Ntn-hydrolases, respectively. The secondary structures were defined with DSSP (19). The figures were prepared with PYMOL (20) and TOPS (21).
