Figure 2.
Fig. 2. Structural comparison. (A) Ribbon diagram of the D. vulgaris FMN-bp (Accession No. 1AXJ) with bound FMN (magenta) showing a single conformer (model 1) out of 20 and oriented and colored as the left subunit in Fig. 1A. (B) Ribbon diagram of the S. cerevisiae PNPOx dimer (Accession No. 1CI0) with bound FMN (magenta) with the central β-sheet of the left subunit oriented and colored as in Fig. 1A. The additional regions in PNPOx compared to Rv1155 and FMN-bp are shown in red, while those that significantly differ between Rv1155, FMN-bp and PNPOx are indicated in orange. In the left subunit, the FMN-binding site at the dimer interface is shown through a transparent molecular surface.
