Fig. 3 Full-Length Zebrafish β-Catenin Crystal Structure

(A) Crystal structure of full-length zebrafish β-catenin. The color scheme of β-catenin armadillo repeats is the same as that in Figure 1. The C-terminal helix (helix C) is colored in red. The N-terminal helix is colored in blue and green with an arrow pointing to the kink. All β-catenin residue numbers shown in this figure are these of corresponding residue numbers of human β-catenin.

(B) SDS-gel analysis of the dissolved full-length zebrafish β-catenin crystals. Lane 1, molecular weight marker. Lane 2, dissolved crystals. Lane 3, purified full-length zebrafish β-catenin.

(C) Structural superposition between human β-catenin-R1C (red) and full-length zebrafish β-catenin (cyan) around helix C.
