Fig. 4. Molecular effects of peptide recognition. (A) The curvature of the PrgX TPR-like domain increases upon autoinducer binding. Cyan, apo-PrgX (Protein Data Bank entry 2AXU); magenta, cCF10:PrgX (Protein Data Bank entry 2AXZ). The pheromone (yellow) is shown in stick representation. (B) Drawing illustrating how the increased TPR domain curvature in PapR:PlcR may rearrange the HTH domains. (Lower) apo-PlcR. (Upper) PapR:PlcR.
