Figure 6
(a) Cartoon representation of the C-terminus of TtLMCO1. The side chains of Trp90, Thr594 and Tyr595 are shown as wheat sticks. Two NAG molecules linked to Asn65 are shown as cyan sticks. (b) Superposition of the C-terminus of TtLMCO1 with the C-termini of other asco-laccases (BaL, TaL, MaL, MtL and AnL) shown in cartoon representation. TtLMCO1 is coloured wheat, while the other asco-laccases are coloured shades of green. A cysteine bridge shown as sticks fixes the position of an α-helix at the C-terminus, allowing the formation of the C-plug. |
