Fig. 2

a TM domain homodimerizes with interface formed by TM2 and TM3 of each protomer. b Electrostatic surface potential representation (±5 kT e−1) of MtCorB TM domain showing a cross-sectional view of the negatively charged cavity. c Close-up view of the polar residues forming the cavity. d A magnesium ion (Mg2+) bound in the cavity with FoFc omits map contoured at 5.0σ. e π-helical turn preceding Pro114 in TM3. Highly conserved residues are highlighted in blue. f Conservation of residues in the π-helical turn from archaea to humans.
