Figure 4. Superantigen superposition and conservation.

Figure 4

(A) SAg superpositions are shown colored by sequence conservation (blue is completely conserved, red is completely divergent). Conserved regions of interacting TCR elements are each shown as grey Cα traces. (B) Superantigen residues that serve as anchor-points for SAg-TCR complexes; the conserved asparagine (blue) and the aromatic pair (cyan), and residues suggested to be important for TRBV discrimination are colored in yellow.
