Figure 3. Shielding from receptor binding.

Figure 3

ProTGF-β1 and TGF-β1 in complex with its receptors (R type I and II) (ref. 15) were superimposed on the TGF-β dimers. For clarity, only one monomer of each is shown. The receptors are shown as transparent molecular surfaces. Elements of the prodomain that clash with the receptors are labelled.
