Structure of GTS1, a WD40 repeat protein. A) Top, bottom and side views of the seven-bladed β-propeller structure (most stable form) made by using PyMol software (http://www.pymol.org/), with the N-terminal and C-terminal regions in blue and red color, respectively. A depicted model is included to show the basic WD40 β-sheet structures conformation of the cylinder structure with a tunnel-like structure in the centre that communicate both top and bottom sides. B) 180° rotated views of the electrostatic potential representation on the GTS1 protein surface. The surface colors are clamped at red (-10) or blue (+10).
