Figure 3.
Fig. 3. Stereo views of the solution structure of VVVV2KE. (A)Superposition of the 20 conformers representing the NMR structure of VVVV2KE (left panel) and single conformer closest to the average structure (right panel). The line drawings include all heavy atoms. -Carbon positions are identified by spheres, and the location of approximately every tenth residue is labeled by its number in the amino acid sequence. (B) Stereo views of the N-cap (left panel) and C-cap (right panel) in the NMR structure of VVVV2KE. The backbone atoms of the first five and last six residues, respectively, were superimposed for minimum r.m.s.d. Only bonds with backbone atoms and backbone carbonyl atoms are displayed, except for the side chain of Asp1. The N- and C-terminal ends are identified and hydrogen bonds drawn with dotted lines. The N-cap hydrogen bond between the carboxyl group of Asp1 and the backbone amide of Ser4 is identified in bold.
