Figure 6. Key Interactions Centered about Helix α2 in the Reduced and Oxidized Forms of Xc OhrR
(A) van der Waals contacts made by L17 in the reduced OhrR structure are shown as dotted lines. Residues making direct and networked contacts to L17 are shown as blue sticks. The OHP sensor cysteine residue is shown as yellow sticks, and Y36 and Y47 are shown as red sticks.
(B) Rearrangement of the L17 hydrophobic pocket and disorder of helix 1b upon oxidation. Residues interacting with L17 in the reduced form are shown in their new positions in the oxidized form. The side-chain color scheme is the same as in (A).
