Figure 4.
Fig. 4. Structure of SufI. (a) Cartoon representation of SufI. The structure shown is for chain A of the orthorhombic space group with domain 1 shown in red, domain 2 in green and domain 3 in blue. Regions of missing density are shown as black dotted lines. The arrow in the region of missing density indicates where the protein is subject to proteolytic cleavage. (b) Stereo view showing CueO (blue) overlaid on the orthorhombic SufI (red) structure. PDB ID 1KV7 was overlaid onto the orthorhombic chain A of SufI with the program CCP4-Lsqkab. The positions of the N- and C-termini of the proteins are shown and the tower region of CueO is labelled for reference. The orientation is as in (a). (c) Stereo view showing representative electron density (2F[o] − F[c]) of orthorhombic chain A, residues 107–131 contoured at 1σ. The positions of the invariant residues leucine 112, arginine 118, tryptophan 126 and proline 128 are labelled.
