Figure 8.
Figure 8. Conformational states along the reaction pathway (see text). (a) G[iα1]–GTPγS–Mg^2+. (b) Structure of the pentacoordinate intermediate modeled on the structure of the G[iα1]–GDP–AlF[4]^−–Mg^2+ complex. (c) G[iα1]–GDP–Pi complex modeled on the structure of G203A–GDP–Pi. (d) G[iα1]–GDP. Color scheme is the same as that used in Figure 3. Figure 8. Conformational states along the reaction pathway (see text). (a) G[iα1]–GTPγS–Mg^2+.
