Figure 5. Comparison of TM1171 with E. coli transcription regulator. (A) Ribbon diagram of E. coli transcription regulator in complex with its DNA substrate (Parkinson et al. 1996). CRP domain bound to DNA molecule A of the dimer is colored cyan and the other is colored yellow. Regions defined by SEG to be disordered are shaded red, while those for DXMS are shaded green (Fig. 1 Go-). DNA is represented by ball-and-stick. The figure was generated with Bobscript (Kraulis 1991; Esnouf 1997) and Raster3d (Meritt and Murphy 1994). (B) Superposition of TM1171 cNTP domain with its counterpart in E. coli (PDB code 1RUN [PDB] ). TM1171 is colored red and 1RUN [PDB] is colored yellow. The overall rmsd between the two domains is 1.74 Å over 111 aligned C residues; the dimerization helix is rotated relative to its counterpart in 1RUN [PDB] by about 20°.
