Dimeric arrangement of the p115 globular head region.
<p>(A) <i>B</i>-factor representation (“S-“ and “W-view”) of p115<sup>GHR</sup> molecules aligned by crystal symmetry. The intermolecular contact area (blue) is among the most rigid parts of the structure. (B) Depending on the orientation, the crystallographic dimer of p115<sup>GHR</sup> has a single-head (“O-view”) or double-lobed globular appearance (“W-” and ”V-view”).</p
Interaction of p115<sup>GHR</sup> and the COG complex subunit COG2.
<p>(A) Electrostatic surfaces of p115<sup>GHR</sup>. The amino terminus of the molecule is at the top of the figure. Blue indicates positive charge and red negative charge at the level of 10 kT/e. (B) Conserved residues of p115 and the yeast homolog Uso1p form a highly charged surface of exposed helices which define the COG2 binding site.</p
Model of the overall fold of the full-length p115.
<p>Surface and cartoon representations of a model of the full-length general vesicular transport factor p115 generated by manually fitting a coiled-coil of appropriate length to the C-termini of p115<sup>GHR</sup> in the crystallographic dimer. The different views of the p115 model closely resemble published electron micrographs of p115 and Uso1p.</p
Electrostatic surfaces comparison of the superhelical grooves of the p115<sup>GHR</sup>, β-catenin and karyopherin-α.
<p>Blue indicates positive charge and red negative charge at the level of 10 kT/e. The amino terminus of the molecule is at the top of the figure.</p

Tracking Transient Conformational States of T4 Lysozyme at Room Temperature Combining X‑ray Crystallography and Site-Directed Spin Labeling
Proteins are dynamic molecules that
can transiently adopt different
conformational states. As the function of the system often depends
critically on its conformational state a rigorous understanding of
the correlation between structure, energetics and dynamics of the
different accessible states is crucial. The biophysical characterization
of such processes is, however, challenging as the excited states are
often only marginally populated. We show that a combination of X-ray
crystallography performed at 100 K as well as at room temperature
and EPR spectroscopy on a spin-labeled single crystal allows to correlate
the structures of the ground state and a thermally excited state with
their thermodynamics using the variant 118R1 of T4 lysozyme as an
example. In addition, it is shown that the surrounding solvent can
significantly alter the energetic as well as the entropic contribution
to the Gibbs free energy without major impact on the structure of
both states
