Fig. 7: Residues of LiRecT targeted for mutational analysis.
From: Structure of a RecT/Redβ family recombinase in complex with a duplex intermediate of DNA annealing
a View of an LiRecT monomer with residues color-coded by location in the structure: blue for inner-strand binding, magenta for outer strand binding, red for β1–β2 hairpin wedge, green for subunit-interface, and gray for control (no interactions). b–e Close-up views of the four different regions. Hydrogen bonds and ion pairs are shown in dashed lines with distances indicated in Å. Notice that the interactions with the inner strand (yellow) in panel b are much more extensive than those with the outer strand (orange) in panels (c, d). In panel e the labels for the residues and secondary structures of the right subunit are underlined.
