Figure 3

Model of MeV H/F assembly. (A) Representation of MeV F as a trimer (upper panel) or monomer (lower panel) with the DI, DII and DIII domains color-coded as indicated in Figure 1A. The highlighted box shows a zoom of the Ig-like domain proposed to be important for interaction with H (HBD). The two key hydrophobic residues proposed (in CDV F) to control H interaction are represented as spheres and color-coded in red (l506 and K508) [133]. Images were generated using the PyMol software package (V 1.0, DeLano Scientific, Palo Alto, California, USA); (B) Putative H/F assembly. The presumptive HBD of one F-monomer is aligned with the proposed H-stalk segment involved in a short range interaction with F (FBD). The “spacer” H-stalk module, which enables positioning of the two dimeric head units above the F trimer, is represented as a box.
