Figure 4.
Figure 4 Discrimination of the first two first bases of the ssDNA recognition site by KH domains of hnRNP K and FBP. (A) hnRNP K KH3 recognizes TC, (B) FBP KH3 recognizes TT and (C) FBP KH4 recognizes TA. The protein backbone and side chains are shown in red and green, respectively, and the DNA in light blue. The numbering scheme employed is that of the hnRNP K KH3−ssDNA complex. Dashed lines indicate intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The residue at position 25 plays a key role in selection of the first two bases of the site. The coordinates of the FBP KH3/KH4 complex (accession code 1J4W) are taken from Braddock et al. (2002).
