- Molecules are three-dimensional entities and stereo-vision of images on paper and on the screen is one of the most powerful, intuitive ways to appreciate that. We have practiced stero-vision in this course; here are a number of situations that require spatial awareness.
2002
This divergent stereo-view shows a trace of connected Cα atoms of a protein domain (the VH domain of the anti-Fluorescein antibody 4-4-20, 4FAB.PDB) and a wireframe representation of all its tryptophan sidechains.
- Write down the label of the tryptophan that is a conserved element of the hydrophobic core of this domain.
2002
This divergent stereo-view shows a trace of connected Cα atoms of a Pleckstrin PH domain, 1PLS.PDB
- Trace the backbone from the N-terminus to amino acid 52 with pencil or pen in one of the images.
I wouldn't ask this type of question any longer - the drawing task seems a bit convoluted for the actual skill it is supposed to test.
