Crystal structure of MvaS
Provided are structure coordinates relating to MvaS and its various uses.
1. A method for displaying a three dimensional representation of a structure of a protein comprising:
taking machine readable data comprising structure coordinates that have a root mean square deviation equal to or less than 0.98 Angstrom when compared to the structure coordinates of FIG. 3 , the root mean square deviation being calculated such that the alpha-carbon atom positions of each set of structure coordinates are superimposed and the root mean square deviation is based only on those amino acid residues in the structure coordinates that are also present in the portion of the protein specified in Table 2;
computing a three dimensional representation of a structure based on the structure coordinates; and
displaying the three dimensional representation.
2. A method according to claim 1 , wherein the root mean square deviation is less than or equal to 0.65 Angstrom.
3. A method according to claim 1 , wherein the root mean square deviation is less than or equal to 0.49 Angstrom.
4. A method according to claim 1 , wherein the root mean square deviation comparison is also based on main-chain atoms positions of the amino acid residues and the root mean square deviation is equal to or less than 0.98 Angstrom.
5. A method according to claim 1 , wherein the root mean square deviation comparison is also based on non-hydrogen atoms positions of the amino acid residues and the root mean square deviation is equal to or less than 0.89 Angstrom.
