Quality of the 2mFo-DFc electron density maps for all structures tested contoured at 1σ. (a) Lysozyme illustrated as a blue cartoon and stick representation. Solvent molecules (water in red) and Cl− ions (green) are represented as spheres. A closer view (panel below) of the Glu35 and Asp52 residues at the catalytic site. (b) Proteinase K illustrated as a pink cartoon and stick representation. Solvent molecules (water in red) and the Ca2+ ion (green) are represented as spheres. A closer view (panel below) of one of the Ca2+ ions. (c) The two phycocyanin subunits (α green and β salmon) illustrated as a blue cartoon and stick representation. The chromophores are shown in a yellow cartoon and stick representation. Solvent molecules (water in red), Na+ ions (purple) and Cl− ions (green) are represented as spheres. A closer view (panel below) of the phycocyanobilin chromophore. (d) The α-spectrin-SH3 domain illustrated as a yellow cartoon and stick representation. Water molecules are shown as red spheres. A closer view (panel below) of the Trp41 and Trp42 residues at the binding site. (e) Hexameric human insulin illustrated as a cartoon and stick representation. The dimer in the asymmetric unit is shown in purple and symmetry-related molecules are shown in dark grey. A closer view (right panel) of the coordination of the Zn2+ ion (blue) with the His10 residues (sticks), and the Cl− ions (in green, and black for the symmetry-related molecules). |
