Structural comparisons of QFRs from D. gigas, W. succinogenes, E. coli. and A. suum. (a) Superimposed structures of dimeric QFRs from D. gigas, W. succinogenes and E. coli. Dimeric QFRs from D. gigas, W. succinogenes and E. coli (from crystallographic symmetry) are colored blue, magenta and yellow, respectively. The major structurally variable areas between D. gigas and W. succinogenes QFRs are labeled as black stars. (b) RMSDs between D. gigas QFR and W. succinogenes QFR, E. coli QFR as well as A. suum QFR are listed. The parentheses represent the numbers of residues aligned using SSM in Coot.
