Figure 2 ssDNA binding by hnRNP K KH3. (A) Overall complex. The protein is displayed as a molecular surface (left) and as a backbone tube (right); hydrophobic, uncharged hydrophilic, positively charged and negatively charged residues located in the ssDNA binding site are depicted in green, magenta, blue and red, respectively; the ssDNA heavy atoms are in gold. (B) Detailed stereoview showing the hydrogen-bonding interactions of the methyl groups of Ile29, Ile36 and Ile49 with the O2 and N3 atoms of the cytosine bases. Nucleotide numbering is in italics.
