Tubulin:Stathmin-like domain Complex

Space-filling view of Tubulin:Stathmin like domain complex. overview of the complex in which each tubulin is colored differently. The α(β) subunits are in brighter (lighter) colors.

RB3-SLD. The N-terminal module (module 1 or M1, colored cyan) comprises residues 4 to 61; it interacts with α1, the “first” α subunit in T2R. The following three modules, M2 (residues 62–83, colored magenta), M3 (residues 84–112, colored light green) and M4 (residues 113–134, colored gray) respectively, interact with β1, α2, and β2.

Tubulin monomer (TR1-D2 structure). The α and β subunits are shown along with D2 which is the crystallization chaperone. D2 targets the β tubulin longitudinal interface, hence its binding site is distinct from that of R1 and the two proteins do no interfere for tubulin binding.
