k-DDX60 Structure and Interactions within the 43S PIC
(A) The cryo-EM structure of the T. cruzi 43S PIC highlighting k-DDX60 (colored in dark turquoise). eIF2, 3, and 5 densities were removed for clarity.
(B) Cartoon representation of a partial atomic model of the T. cruzi 43S PIC.
(C) A close-up view of the k-DDX60 A-site insert showing its interaction with the anticodon stem loop (ASL).
(D) Schematic representation of the k-DDX60 domains. Pink boxes indicate the domains that could not be modeled because of their lower local resolution (see Figure S1B).
(E) Cartoon representation of the atomic model of the k-DDX60 and its interactions with the 43S PIC color coded in accordance with its schematic representation in (D).
