Figure 6.
FIG. 6. Solvent arrangements in the ligand binding cavity of unliganded GRP94. A, stereo drawing of the residues lining the cavity and the solvent molecules within the cavity. Hydrogen bonds are shown as dashed lines. Water molecules are shown as spheres, and those that are common to all GRP94-ligand complexes are colored purple. Orange-colored waters are conserved in the GRP94 closed conformation but are displaced by nucleotides and the large inhibitor geldanamycin. PEG, polyethylene glycol. B, schematic diagram of the same interactions shown in panel A. Water molecules are colored as in panel A. Hydrogen bonds are shown as green dashed lines. NE, nuclear extract.
