Overview, purification and structure of Rm-IcmQ.

A. A domain diagram for IcmR-IcmQ is shown. Trypsin treatment removes flexible N- and C-terminal regions of IcmR that may be unstructured, and yields the trypsin resistant (tr) Rm-IcmQ complex.

B. The purification of Rm-IcmQ-tr is shown on SDS-PAGE. Molecular weight markers (Lane M), high speed lysate (Lane 1), eluate from HisTrap HP (Lane 2), flow-through from HiTrap Q (Lane 3), eluate from HiTrap Sp (Lane 4), and Rm-IcmQ after trypsinization and purification (Lane 5) are shown.

C. A molecular model of Rm-IcmQ is shown. The middle region of IcmR (Rm, pink) interacts with the N-terminal domain of IcmQ (Qn, light blue) to form the Rm-Qn interacting domain, comprised of a 4-helix bundle. A linker helix (α2L) separates Rm-Qn from the C-terminal domain of IcmQ (Qc, green). Secondary structures are labeled, including the Δ-loop, and four residues mutated to glutamines (aa57, 59, 67 and 71) are also shown.

D. and E. Front and back views are shown of Qc.
