Figure 4.
Figure 4. Stereo views of the structure of the C-cluster in the subunit. a, Electron density, contoured at the 1 level, corresponding to a 2mF[o] - DF[c] difference electron density map42 using 1.9 Å resolution refined model phases of CO-treated crystal CO[a]. b, Residual mF[o] - F[c] electron density peaks, contoured at the 5.5 level, correponding to (i) a putative persulfide formed between a labile S atom and Cys316, (ii) an alternative position for the unique Fe, as indicated by arrows and (iii) alternative conformations of Cys550. Atoms at alternative positions are shown as translucid spheres. Atoms are colored as in Fig. 2.
