Thermostability of CXCR4QTY and CCR10QTY and extra intracellular hydrogen bond by simulation. (A) Relative affinity of CXCR4QTY toward CXCL12 after heat treatment. (B) Relative affinity of CCR10QTY toward CCL27 after heat treatment. (C–S) Additional internal hydrogen bonds in simulated CXCR4QTY and CCR10QTY. Notation: ‘s’ denotes a side chain bond and ‘b’ denotes a backbone bond. Thus, Q121s-T152s-T148b denotes that the side chain of Q at location 121 forms a hydrogen bond with the side chain of T at location 152, which forms a hydrogen bond with the backbone of T at position 148. In CXCR4QTY: (C) Q260s-S260s-Y256b, (D) T215b-Q216s-Q246s, (E) Y249s-Q253, (F) Q167s-H203b, (G) T169s-Q165b, (H) T204s-Q208s, (I) Q78s-Q69s-Q69b, (J) T112s-Q108b, (K) Q290s-T287b. In CCR10QTY: (L) D35s-R192s-D289s, (M) Y14s-Q172-Q214/Q172-S106b, (N) Q63s-Q82s, (O) Q167s-T163s-H159b, (P) Q54s-Q305s-Y256b-Q252s-Q81s-T308s, (Q) Q259s-Q298s, (R) Y263s-Q211s-S207b, (S) D270s-Q292s.
