Figure 2

c407 interaction with the 3D structure of the F508del-CFTR MSDs:NBDs assembly. (A) Ribbon representation of the 3D structure model of the F508del-CFTR MSDs:NBDs assembly. NBD1 is colored in blue, MSD2 in brown red. The box highlights the position on this assembly of the putative c407 binding site, which is detailed in the right part of the figure. (B) Predicted c407 binding site in the context of the isolated F508del-NBD1 (extracted from the whole MSDs:NBDs architecture). In the inset is represented superimposition with the 3D structure of F508del MSDs:NBDs assembly, in order to highlight the similar position of the c407 (pink) external phenyl ring and ICL4 F1068 (red brown). (C) Predicted c407 binding site in the context of the F508del MSD:NBD assembly (same orientation as in Panel B). In the inset is represented the superimposition with the 3D structure of WT NBD1, in order to highlight the similar position of the c407 (green) external phenyl ring and F508 (blue). (D) Extended c407 analog, G1, is shown with the extension designed to interact with Y1073, thereby adding contacts with ICL4.
