Figure 7

Artistic license. These two figures of hormone receptors were created with different approaches to artistic license, for two different audiences. (a) Illustration of estrogen receptor for the RCSB PDB “Molecule of the Month” 62. The goal is to show only the portions that are included in the PDB archive, so dots are used to show the connection between domains, and only a small oligonucleotide is shown. (b) Illustration of vitamin D receptor for the book “The Machinery of Life.” The book is designed for general audiences, so a more complete model of the complex was simulated in the illustration, by generating coordinates for the missing peptides and DNA (PDB entries 1a52, 1hcq, 1db1, 1kb6).
