Figure 2
Positioning of the α/β hydrolase fold part of acetylcholineesterase from T. californica onto 3 Å MIR electron density of esterase 713 from Alcaligenes species found by MOLREP using the SAPTF algorithm. The figure was prepared using MOLSCRIPT (Kraulis, 1991). (a) A stereo diagram of the Cα trace of acetylcholineesterase (green) positioned in the esterase 713 MIR electron density (blue) around a β-sheet of one of subunits. The Cα trace of the refined esterase model is shown in red. (b) A stereo diagram of the Cα trace of two molecules of acetylcholineesterase (green and blue) superimposed onto the Cα trace of refined esterase dimer; subunits are shown in red and black. |
