Figure 6.

Representative snapshots of the N-BAR system (left) and the BAR-coated liposome systems (right) after 5 million CG MD timestep simulations. The proteins are colored by a packing order parameter that is explained in the main text. Circles in the left panel highlight the region where proteins gather into structures that have similar orientations. This kind of clustering is missing in the BAR domain system in the right panel. The data are consistent with the hypothesis that BAR domains require H0 helices to form arrays and strings on the liposome.
