Figure 9

Molecular surface of the PAK monomeric pilin showing the different residues of the Receptor Binding Domain (RBD). Residues 128, 143, and 144 are shown in red and are the key residues for binding to PAO pilin specific antibodies. Residues 135 and 136 are show in green and are the key residues for binding to PAK pilin specific antibodies. Identical residues between the PAK and PAO strain RBDs are shown in yellow (positions C129, S131, Q133, D134, F137, P139, K140, G141, and C142, Figure 1). Other residues different between the two strains, in addition to those shown in red and green, are shown in blue (positions 130, 132, and 138, Figure 1) and the rest of the pilin protein is shown in gray (12).
