3. Model of the tetrameric arrangement of the transmembrane domain of inositol-triphosphate receptor
![]() |
Model of the tetrameric arrangement of the transmembrane domain of inositol-triphosphate receptor. The model of the individual protomers have been obtained from the coordinates of the potassium channel (Doyle et al., 1998). Figure prepared by Parantu Shah |
4. Conserved and class-specific residues for TGF dimer and the TGF type-II receptor
![]() |
Conserved (shown in blue) and class-specific (shown in pink) residues shown for TGF dimer (left) and the TGF type-II receptor(right).Yellow, green and blue arrows indicate complimentary patches of residues that are predicted to be present at the interface regions. Figure prepared by Parantu Shah |
5. Models of members of bioluminescence superfamily - EagI model compared with LasI model
![]() |
Models of members of bioluminescence superfamily - EagI model compared with LasI model. SAM and the corresponding PNT substrate have been docked and shown inball-and-stick form.Hydrophobic residues are shown in white, acidic residues in red and basic residues in blue.The PNT-binding site of LasI is broader and is acidic. Figure prepared by Saikat Chakrabarti |
6. Three-dimensional model of Bdm1 obtained by threading the sequence on the fold of BPHD
![]() |
Three-dimensional model of Bdm1 obtained by threading the sequence on the fold of BPHD (pdbcode: 1c4x ) . Side-chains of three residues (His164, Ser259 and Asp231, identified by the functional template approach) shown qualify the criteria for the catalytic triad of alpha/beta hydrolases.
