Figure 5. Putative Active Site and Surface View of Ta Pelota
(A) Stereo ribbon diagram around the putative active site. Three conserved acidic residues in motif I are shown.
(B) Two different views of the electrostatic potential at the molecular surface of Ta Pelota (blue, positive; red, negative). They are roughly 90° apart. The location of conserved acidic residues in motif I is indicated by the yellow dotted ellipse. The green dotted ellipse on the right panel indicates the positively charged surface patch next to sequence motif I.
