Figure 1
Overall structures of the APLP1 E2 domain and of the (APLP1 E2)2–(heparin)2 complex. (a) Heparin-free APLP1 E2 is shown in cartoon representation. Individual protomers found in the asymmetric unit are indicated in grey and in a rainbow colour scheme indicating the extension of the peptide chain from the N-­terminus (blue) to the C-terminus (red). (b) The (APLP1 E2)2–(heparin)2 complex showing the protein in cartoon representation and the bound saccharide as a stick model. (c) An alternative, parallel-oriented, dimeric assembly present in the asymmetric unit of the (APLP1 E2)2–(heparin)2 complex structure. The same colour scheme as shown in (a) is used to discriminate the individual protein chains of the asymmetric unit. Individual heparin chains are coloured magenta (heparin chain a) or cyan (heparin chain b).
