Fig. 3. Molecular anatomy of the residues in the interaction site between astressin and ECD1–CRF-R2 . Shown are front (A) and back (B) stereo views of the side chain interactions between the ECD1 and astressin. The backbones of astressin and ECD1 are shown as green and magenta ribbons, respectively. Hydrophobic side chains are shown in yellow, hydrogen bonds are shown in cyan, and the salt bridges Arg-35–Glu-86 and Lys-36–Glu-39 are shown in gray. All of the residues in the interaction surface are marked for clarity. "X" refers to norleucine residue (Nle).
