Figure 5

Cholesterol interacting with TM7 Pro7.38. The time-sequence in panel (A) is for the z-directional distance between the cholesterol oxygen and the Cα atom of Pro7.38. Panel (B) shows the angle between the cholesterol ring and the axis of the extracellular segment of TM7 as a function of trajectory time. Cholesterol is shown in space-fill, and Pro7.38 in green. The TM6-TM7 bundle of rhodopsin is shown as ribbons (A), or as cylinders (B). [Color figure can be viewed in the online issue, which is available at www.interscience.wiley.com]
