Figure 7.
Figure 7. Domain Twisting Caused by ATP Binding to the Open Ring of GroEL-GroES-ADPCryo-EM structure to 12.5 Å resolution of the GroES-ADP[7]-GroEL-ATP[7] complex isolated from a reaction mixture. The cryo-EM map is shown as a blue transparent surface, with the atomic structure docked in. The GroEL domains are colored as in Figure 2, and GroES is cyan. The precision of the fit is demonstrated by the side view (a). The white circle in (a) indicates the position of the R197-E386 contact. The free apical domains (lower ring in [a]) are docked into the end view (b) with a counterclockwise rotation of 20° ± 5°. The white dotted lines are orientation markers for comparison of the apical rotation here with that in Figure 3a.
