Figure 4
A ribbon representing the monomer of CGL is shown in two orthogonal orientations. Sections of the ribbon shown in three different colors correspond to subdomains of CGL. The amino-acid sequence of the lectin is shown beneath the ribbons. The N- and C-termini are labeled and locations of putative carbohydrate-binding sites are indicated by diffuse spheres. In the sequence representation, three subdomains are aligned and highlighted using the same color scheme as in the cartoon. Residues colored red, representing 37% of the aligned sections on average, are common to all three repeats. |
