Figure 4
Electron-density maps for GPX4WT. (a) 2mFo − DFc map at the active site, contoured at 1.5σ, with the final GPX4WT model shown in stick representation. Three residues of the catalytic tetrad are shown. The occupancy of the Se atom of Sec46 is 0.60. (b)–(e) show 2mFo − DFc maps (blue) contoured at 1.5σ after modeling residue 46 as cysteine (b) or as selenocysteine with different occupancies (c, d, e). Difference density (mFo − DFcalc) maps are contoured at 3σ (green) and −3σ (red), respectively. |
