a

These simulations are of the protein when it is myristylated at its N-terminal glycine residue.

b

These simulations correspond to the protein that is not myristylated. Apo simulations are of the protein in the absence of ligands, and ternary state corresponds to simulations where the protein was bound to ATP and an inhibitory peptide, SP20.
