Figure 3.
Fig. 3. Comparison of the E. burgeri deoxy-Hb F1 dimer (A) with the lamprey Hb V dimer (B) (Protein Data Bank code 3lhb). The E and F helices and AB corners are indicated. Lamprey deoxy-Hb has a more open conformation in the upper half of the interface, and the F helices do not contribute to dimer formation.
