Fig. 2. Architecture of COPII rods organised in a left-handed manner.

Fig. 2

a Schematic representation of the outer coat lozenge architecture, with left-handed rod positions highlighted in the box. b Top panel: top view of the 11 Å subtomogram average of the COPII left-handed rod, with rigid-body fitted models (PDB 2PM6). The dimerising protomers are shown in dark and light pink, Sec13 in grey. Bottom panel: side view of (b). c Details of the map in (b), showing the quality of the fit. Left panel: detail of Sec13 β-propeller. Right panel: detail of Sec31 α-solenoid domain. Sigma threshold for contouring was set at 5 for (b, c). d Enlargement of the region boxed in panel ‘b’ shown at lower contour (sigma = 2.1) to display an extra density.
