Figure 2. Overall structure of PIM2 and comparison with PIM1.

Figure 2

Overlay of the two proteins (shown in ribbon representation) reveals the strong conservation of the kinase fold. A. PIM1 (2bzh, coloured orange) contains the C-terminal αJ helix that is absent in PIM2 (coloured green for β-strand and red for α-helix). B. The view is rotated by 90° to highlight the unusual β-hairpin in the kinase N-lobe which is partially disordered in the PIM2 structure.
