Figure 3. The τ60/Δτ91 Interface
(A) Stereo diagram of the interactions between τ60 and Δτ91. The view corresponds to Figure 1A. Hydrogen bonds are indicated as dashed lines. Blades and strands involved in the interactions are indicated for both proteins.
(B) Summary of the interactions between τ60 and Δτ91. Strands, labeled from A to D, are represented by arrows. Hydrophobic, polar, basic, and acidic residues are in green, orange, blue, and red, respectively. Polar interactions involving main chain atoms are indicated as dashed gray lines, polar interactions between side chain atoms as gray lines, and hydrophobic interactions as green lines. The blades are labeled for both proteins.
(C) Conservation and electrostatic surface potentials of the τ60 and Δτ91 contact surfaces. The left and right panels show charge distribution (top) and sequence conservation (bottom) of the τ60 and Δτ91 contact surfaces, respectively. Sequence conservation above 70% is depicted in green based on a sequence alignment of different fungal orthologs (Figures S1 and S2). Dashed yellow lines indicate interacting regions. Regions of negative and positive surface potential are depicted in red and blue, respectively. Figures 3C and 4C were generated with the program GRASP (Nicholls et al., 1993).
