Figure 1 Dilysine interaction in the N-lobe of transferrin. (a) Ribbon diagram showing the approach of Lys296 from domain N1 (lower) to Lys206 from domain N2 (upper) adjacent to the bound Fe atom (red sphere). (b) Interactions made by the -amino group of Lys296: hydrogen bonds (broken lines) to Lys206 N^ , Tyr188 O^ and the aromatic ring of Tyr95. This and the other figures were prepared using PyMOL (DeLano, 2002[DeLano, W. L. (2002). The PyMOL Molecular Graphics System. http://www.pymol.org/ .]).
