Fig. 3

a Radial distribution function gPD-PD(r) in black and nPD-PD(r) in red quantifying the correlations between N130 PDs in the simulated N130 + rpL5 system. There are local maxima at 53 Å, 95 Å, and 144 Å. On average, approximately four PDs are found within the first coordination shell. b Radial distribution functions g+–(r) quantifying the correlations between positive charges in rpL5 and negative charges in acidic regions of N130. The inset shows a zoom in to troughs in g(r) in a spatial range between 75 Å and 140 Å that is between 1.5σ and 2.5σ, where σ is the diameter of the N130 PD. Averages were calculated over five replicates (\(n=5\)).
