Figure 2.
Figure 2 (a) Stereo plot illustrating the anomalous difference map (red) contoured at 4.5 surrounding the buried chloride (green) in the interior of the protein and the S atoms (yellow). Magnesium is displayed as an orange sphere. (b) Stereo plot of the interactions between the chloride ion (green sphere) and the protein main-chain N atoms of Tyr43, Cys44, Ile123 and the O^ atom of Ser41. Two disulfide bridges in the vicinity of the chloride-binding site are also displayed. This figure was prepared with PyMOL (DeLano, 2002[DeLano, W. L. (2002). The PyMOL Molecular Visualization System. http://www.pymol.org .]) and MOLSCRIPT (Kraulis, 1991[Kraulis, P. J. (1991). J. Appl. Cryst. 24, 946-950.]).
