Figure 3. Crystal Structure of the C44 Tetramer (A)
Lateral view of the C44 tetramer. Yellow van der Waals surfaces
identify residues at the a positions, red surfaces identify
residues at the d positions, and light-blue surfaces identify
residues at the g positions. The N termini of helices A and B
are indicated. (B) Axial view of the C44 tetramer. The red
van der Waals surfaces of the Ile1154(d) and Leu1182(d) side
chains are depicted. (C) Cross-section of the tetramer in
the Ile1161(d) layer. The 1.70 Å 2F[o] − F[c] electron
density map (contoured at 1.2σ) is shown with the refined
molecular model. (D) Helical wheel representation of
residues 1153–1185 of the C44 tetramer. Heptad-repeat
positions are labeled a–g. The C44 helices interact through a
previously uncharacterized type of packing interaction between
the a, d, and g side chains (colored green). Figure 3.
