Treble clef fingers inside
larger structures. Structural diagrams of ARF-GAP domain of Pyk2-associated
protein β (1dcq, chain A, residues 248–365),
RING finger of RAG1 (dimerization domain) (1rmd, residues 1–87),
retinoid X receptor α DNA-binding domain
(2nll, chain B, residues 300–369), Cys2 activator-binding
domain of protein kinase Cδ (1ptq,
residues 243–280), S.marcescens endonuclease
(1ql0, chain A, residues 6–245) and intron-encoded homing
endonuclease I-PpoI (1a73, chain A, residues 21–139). The
treble clef finger motif is outlined in red. β-Strands
and α-helices that are not part of the
motif are shown in yellow and blue, respectively. Side-chains of
zinc ligands, residues in sites corresponding to ligands of zinc #1,
and active site residues in 1a73 are shown in ball-and-stick representation.
Active site residues are colored in green. Zn2+ and Mg2+ are
displayed as orange and green balls, respectively. In each protein,
N- and C-termini are labeled with N and C. β-Strands
and α-helices are labeled in lower and
upper case letters, respectively. The color of the letter corresponds
to the color of the element. Zinc ions are labeled with numbers
corresponding to those in Figure 3.
