Figure 2
Experimental and simulated total and partial PDDFs for dimeric tetra-loop receptor RNA (tectoRNA). Right upper inset: experimental XS data [reused from Zuo et al. (2008)] of tectoRNA, with a q range of 0.006–2.5 Å−1. Left upper inset: tectoRNA (PDB code 2jyf; Zuo et al., 2008) in a cartoon model, generated using PyMOL (https://www.pymol.org/). The two monomeric units are displayed in green and red. Curves 1–6 show the variation in PDDF profiles obtained using GNOM and adjusting the maximal q value (qmax) for the input data: 1, qmax = 0.10; 2, qmax = 0.20; 3, qmax = 0.33; 4, qmax = 0.65; 5, qmax = 1.00; and 6, qmax = 2.50. PDDF curves 7 and 8 are the DD-PDDF profiles directly calculated from the tectoRNA dimer and monomer coordinates, respectively. Curve 9 is the Pcorr(r) between the two monomeric units. All the PDDFs were plotted on the same scale, but the experimental PDDFs were vertically offset for clarity. The black thin dashed lines are zero lines. |
