Structural comparison of the conserved GXXXW motifs and their modified motifs in the third and fourth blades of the wild-type YxaL protein. (a) All tryptophan and glycine residues in the conserved GXXXW motifs are emphasized as violet sticks. Thr175, Ser213 and Trp215 in the modified motifs are shown as sky-blue stick models. (b) Close-up view of the conserved GXXXW motifs framed in the black box in (a). The π interaction between Trp380 and Gly87 is shown as dotted lines. (c) Close-up view of the modified motifs in the third and fourth blades framed in the red box in (a). The distances between Thr175 and Ser213 and between Thr175 and Trp215 are shown as dashed arrows. |
