Figure 6. Molecular Surface Representation of the Substrate-Binding Sites in GroELThe molecular surface of the binding sites formed by helices H and I is highlighted in red. The binding sites form “elastic rings” located on the opening of the GroEL central cavities.(A) Top view of GroEL.(B) Stereo view of the central cavities of binding-competent GroEL.The three subunits from each of the rings nearest the reader were removed to show the inside of the central cavities. Figures were generated in GRASP ([32]).
