Extended Data Fig. 8. Sequence conservation highlights critical interfaces of Noc1 and Noc2.

Extended Data Fig. 8

(a) A top view down the central cavity of the Noc1-Noc2 heterodimer encapsulating helix 2 of the large subunit rRNA. The most conserved residues of the heterodimer are depicted in spheres, with sequence conservation colored from coral (100% conserved) to white (0% conserved) for Noc1, and maroon (100% conserved) to white (0% conserved) for Noc2. Conservation was calculated by the ConSurf webserver40, with sequence alignments generated by Clustal Omega41 from 12 model organisms. (b) The Noc1-Noc2 interface highlights clusters of conserved residues that allow for a tight interaction between the two proteins, with conserved residues depicted in sticks. (c) The Noc1-RNA interface reveals a set of conserved residues that line the central channel occupied by the RNA of helix 2, depicted in sticks.
