Figure 4. Electrostatic Potential Surface of Tdp1The molecular surface is colored between −10kT (red) and +10kT (blue) and was generated with the program GRASP [35]. The orientation of the Tdp1 structure is the same as in Figure 1A. The peptide-vanadate-DNA substrate mimic is displayed as a stick structure. The yellow V indicates the position of the vanadate residue in the active site. The DNA moiety extends above the active site, bound in the narrow, positively charged half of the substrate binding groove. The peptide moiety is located below the active site in a relatively neutral portion of the wider substrate binding cleft.
