FIGURE 2. Docked structure of dp10 heparin in complex with TSPN-1. A, TSPN-1·dp10 low energy complex identified using AutoDock4. TSPN-1 residues involved in the hydrogen bonding network are rendered in ball-and-stick. Each residue involved in the hydrogen bonding network is annotated. For clarity hydrogen bonds are not displayed. Each domain is labeled and rendered as a ribbon drawing, with -helices colored green (domain A) or magenta (domain B), and β-strands and random coil are colored cyan (domain A) or yellow (domain B). The heparin moiety dp10 is rendered in ball and stick representation. B, Molcad surface of the TSPN-1·dp10 complex with residues involved in the hydrogen bonding network colored in blue. This view of the TSPN-1·dp10 complex is the result of rotating the complex –90° around the x-axis (out of the plane of the page or screen) to provide a view of this complex from the heparin binding site, which is located at the base of complex in panel A. Figs. 2B and 4B were prepared using the SYBYL suite of programs (Tripos).
