Crystal packing of the ClpC1-NTD–RUF-I and ClpC1-NTD–ECU complexes. (a) The Cα trace of the protein in ClpC1-NTD–RUF-I depicts a close association of subunits. (b) The ClpC1-NTD–ECU complex has much more loosly associated subunits with no stable quaternary structure predicted. Both structures are a dimer of trimers or 32 symmetry. While the RUF-I complex has a staggered orientation (c), the ECU complex is eclipsed (d). |
