Figure 2.
Fig. 2. (A) Initial electron density showing the overall conformation of the duplicated sequence, as seen in space group P3[2]21. The WT* structure, omitting residues 36-42 (shown as a ribbon drawing) was subject to 10 cycles of rigid-body refinement in the mutant lysozyme cell. The calculated phases and structure factors, F[c], were used to calculate a map with amplitudes (F[mutant] F[c]) at 3.0-Å resolution. The density in the vicinity of the deleted residues, contoured at 2.5 , is shown. (B) Electron density after refinement of the inserted region in space group P3[2]21. Coefficients are (2F[o]-F[c]). The structure factors, F[c], and phases were calculated from the refined model including the inserted region. The resolution is 2.5 Å, and the map is contoured at 1.0 . (C) Superposition of the overall structure of the duplication mutant in space group P3[2]21 (blue bonds) on WT* lysozyme (green bonds). The inserted region in the mutant structure is highlighted in yellow.
