Figure 1
Asymmetric unit of the twinned CD9EC2 crystal, coloured by protein chain. Domains are labelled A–E in the cyan-coloured chain. The D loop is flexible as follows from comparison of different structures involving CD9EC2 and structures of EC2 domains from other tetraspanins (Oosterheert et al., 2020). The direction of view is approximately along the non-crystallographic (NCS) twofold axis that coincides with the twofold twin axis a* + b* (see text). The NCS operation transforms chain A into chain B, and chain C into chain D. |
