| Summary | |
|---|---|
| Description | (A) Mapping results for R1-bound 3D7 PfAMA1 (grey, PDB ID: 3SRJ). R1 peptides and water were removed prior to mapping. The five largest consensus sites, CS1 (cyan, 21 probe clusters), CS2 (magenta, 17 probe clusters), CS3 (yellow, 13 probe clusters), CS4 (salmon, 10 probe clusters) and CS5 (grey, 9 probe clusters) are located in a large hydrophobic pocket that binds to the Phe5-Phe9 segment of R1 peptide. The position of the R1 peptide in the crystal structure is shown for reference (blue). Phe5-Phe9 side chains are displayed as sticks and labelled individually as shown in the figure. The surface of the pocket is coloured according to side chain colours in panel B. (B) The residues that interact with small molecule probe clusters in the pocket are shown as sticks (green/orange). A cluster of five Tyr residues is highlighted in orange. Broken purple line indicates the displaced domain II loop in the R1-bound conformation. (C) Mapping results for IgNAR-bound 3D7 PfAMA1 (grey, PDB ID: 2Z8V). IgNAR and water were removed prior to mapping. Two consensus sites CS3 (yellow, 14 probe clusters) and CS5 (grey, 9 probe clusters) are located in a domain II loop-protected pocket. The surface of the protein is coloured according to colour scheme in panel D. An inset highlights probes that fit into a deep, narrow pocket. (D) Some key interacting residues (highlighted as green/orange sticks), which bind probes when the domain II loop is displaced (panel B), are still solvent accessible to small molecule organic probes when the pocket is partially protected by the domain II loop (purple). |
