a, b 3D reconstruction of NChelix-dense and the respective atomic model. The C-arm (residues from 374 to 406) is labeled in blue. Sixty-five protomers in NChelix-dense are shown in b. c, d 3D reconstruction of NChelix-hyper and the respective atomic model. Sixty-five protomers in NChelix-hyper are shown in d. e Structural clash in NChelix-hyper with the superimposed C-arm. f Interface analysis of protomers from neighboring rungs in NChelix-dense and NChelix-hyper. g The electrostatic distribution analysis on Ni+14 in NChelix-dense. Loop20-46 and α16 helix from Ni+14 are marked with rectangular shapes.
