Tertiary structure prediction of wild type and mutant plectin in family #2. A-D: Sequence homology-based prediction approach of the 200 amino acid sequence encompassing the mutation R21C. E-H: Sequence homology-based prediction approach of the 500 amino acid sequence encompassing the mutation D3668N. In the case of the N-terminal region there was no 3D-predicted structure. For the C-terminal region the 3D structure was predicted from the plakin family member, desmoplakin. Phyre2 free tool was used for the analysis. Amino acids are colored code in a gradient from red (N-terminus) to yellow (C-terminus).The amino acid of interest in colored in green. Wild type N-terminus region (A, C), mutant N-terminus region (B, D), wild type 3rd and 4th plectin repeat domains (E, G), and mutant 3rd and 4th repeat domains (F, H). |
