Figure 8. Binding of ceramides to I2PP2A/SET.

Figure 8

(A) Docking of C22-ceramide to I2PP2A/SET. The surface contour was colored by electrostatic potential. The atoms of C22-ceramide were shown as sticks. (B) The binding mode of C22-ceramide with I2PP2A/SET. C22-ceramide and the residues involved in the interactions with C22-ceramide are shown as sticks. The hydrogen bonds formed between C22-ceramide and I2PP2A/SET were shown as black dashes. (C) Binding modes between I2PP2A/SET and ceramide with various chain lengths predicted by molecular docking. Front and rear direction views show the bond ceramide composed sphingosine and fatty acid chains.
