Figure 4
The left image shows a rainbow ribbon representation of MLP showing how the protein folds from the N-terminus (N) to the C-terminus (C). The image on the right is a representation based on secondary structure with helices in red, β-sheet in yellow and loops in green. The right-hand image is rotated approximately 90° around a 45° rotational axis to give a clear view of the N-terminal region, which is largely formed from loops, whereas the rest of the protein is predominantly helical. The secondary-structure assignment was automatically generated in PyMOL. |
