The angle between α3 and α4 is 33° for PedB and 31° for EntA-im. (B) Stereo view of the superimposed structures of PedB (red) and EntA-im (cyan). The flexible C-terminal loop of EntA-im that is thought to be important for its immunity is highlighted by a black ellipse. N and C indicate the N- and C-terminus of PedB, respectively
