Figure 3. The hydrophobic region of the S100P monomer. (a) A ball- and-stick representation of the hydrophobic core formed by F71, F74, and F15, hydrogen bonds between two b-strands by L28 and V69 are coloured in blue. Phenyl- alanine residues are shown in yellow, and other hydrophobic residues labelled are shown in the same colour as their helices (see Figure 2). The monomer is coloured as in Figure 2. (b) Ribbon and atom sphere surface representations of the hydrophobic globe. The hydro- phobic core is further enlarged to a globe by many hydrophobic residues in khaki. The monomer is coloured in slate-blue, and calcium ions are shown in blue. The atom sphere surface was drawn by the program GRASP. 43
