Figure 6. Hydrophobic crevice.

Figure 6

(A) The cleft that may accommodate one of the CL acyl chains in cyt c consists of non-polar residues comprising polypeptide strands 67–71 and 82–85 (ochre) with positively charged residues Arg-91 and Lys-72 (blue) at either extremity. (B) Space-filling model representing the two hydrophobic stretches. The protein structure was generated with the VMD molecular modelling program (Protein Data Bank accession code 1AKK).
