Figure Legend Snippet: Morph from the LPF ADP MDFF model to the LPF rigor MDFF model. To generate this morph, the ADP and rigor density maps were aligned, then their corresponding atomistic models were rigid body fit into the aligned maps. Myosin, magenta, three actin subunits, varying shades of blue.
Techniques Used:
Figure Legend Snippet: Morph from the ADP to rigor reconstruction, low-pass filtered at 7.5 Å focusing on the myosin VI nucleotide binding cleft with density corresponding to ADP nucleotide colored orange (left panel). To generate this morph, density maps aligned to each other. Right panel includes the LPF rigor MDFF model rigid body fit into the rigor density map.
Techniques Used:
Figure Legend Snippet: Morphs from actin alone to ADP, ADP to rigor, and rigor to actin alone focusing on the H-plug (red) and D-loop (orange). Right panels: Morphs of density maps, low-pass filtered to 7.5 Å and aligned to each other. Left panels: Morphs between backbone-averaged HR MDFF models. To generate the morphs of atomistic models, the density maps were aligned, then their corresponding atomistic models were rigid-body fit into the aligned maps.
Techniques Used:
Figure Legend Snippet: Morph between the backbone-averaged HR MDFF actin alone, ADP, and rigor models. Morphs generated as in
Techniques Used:
Figure Legend Snippet: Morph between indicated states of the myosin VI mechanochemical cycle, aligned in the reference from of the actin filament. To generate this morph, the full ADP and rigor density maps were aligned, and then the LPF ADP MDFF and LPF rigor MDFF models were rigid body fit into their corresponding densities. The grafted lever arm models were then superimposed on the LPF MDFF models using overlapping Cα coordinates. For the Pre-Powerstroke (2V26) and PiR (4PFO) states, the X-ray structures were superimposed on the LPF ADP MDFF model based on the Cα coordinates of the full motor domain. For the post-rigor (2VAS) state, the x-ray structure was superimposed on the LPF rigor MDFF model based on the Cα coordinates of the full motor domain. The lever arms of crystal structures were extended in a manner analogous to the procedure described in the Experimental Methods after superposing 3GN4 utilizing overlapping Cα coordinates. Myosin, magenta, actin density map, grey. Nucleotides and ions are displayed in ball and stick representation and colored by heteroatom.
