Figure 5

Superposition of the residues involved in the formation of the hydrophobic core in the monomers of HUSpm (shown in gray) and (а) Anabaena PCC7120 HU protein (pink), (b) T. maritima HU protein (cyan), (c) B. stearothermophilus HU protein (green), and (d) B. burgdorferi HU protein (orange). Only hydrophobic residues are shown. For the reasons of clarity, the secondary structure elements of HUSpm (coloured as in Fig. 2a) are semitransparent.
