Figure 7. (a) Superposition of the NMR structure of intact LfcnH peptide (yellow) on the lactoferricin domain (residues 3–49) of the NLF (green) from the PspA[2]:NLF complex. The conformation of the first helix of the Lfcn domain is very similar in both structures although the β-sheet is unfolded in the LfcnH peptide. (b) Residues in the first helix of NLF (green) that interact with various residues of PspA[2] (salmon) are shown in stick model. This helix of NLF provides many contacts with PspA. The corresponding section of LfcnH peptide is shown in yellow.
