Figure 5. Comparison of the Vts1p-SAM–SRE complex with the structures of other SAM domain–containing proteins. (a) Crystal structure of the RuvA SAM-like domain in complex DNA^45 (PDB entry 1C7Y); red and yellow helices correspond to those in Vts1p-SAM shown in d. (b) Crystal structure of the heterodimer formed by the Yan and Mae SAM domains^17 (1SV0), colored light and dark gray, respectively. (c) Crystal structure of the homodimer formed by the EphB2 SAM domain^18 (1B4F). (d) Overlay of the Vts1p-SAM–SRE complex (blue, red and yellow) and the crystal structure of Smaug (light green; 1OXJ) solved in its free state^7.
