Figure 7

Electrostatic potential distribution of the LTA ₄ H and Ap-B proteins. Molecular surfaces with electrostatic potentials of both proteins were computed with DELPHI. The potential scale ranges from -7 kT/e (red) to 7 kT/e (blue). Left column, electrostatic potential map displayed on the molecular surface of LTA₄H (PDB accession number, 1HS6). Right column, electrostatic potential map displayed on the molecular surface of the Ap-B model (rAp-B). Four different orientations (1 to 4; each representing a rotation of about 90°) are represented. The corresponding 3D structure of each protein and orientation are also shown. The figure was created using the molecular graphics software PyMol (PyMol v0.99; [61]).
