Fig. 3From: Population genetic and biophysical evidences reveal that purifying selection shapes the genetic landscape of Plasmodium falciparum RH ligands in Chhattisgarh and West Bengal, IndiaIn silico modelling of interaction between PfRH53D7 or PfRH5M with BSG. a Three dimensional space filled model of the PfRH53D7 (red) and BSG (cyan) complex was shown with the residue C203 highlighted with green color. b A model of the PfRH53D7-BSG complex with Y203 was highlighted in yellow was also shown. Energy of interactions (kcal/mol) between BSG and c PfRH53D7 or d PfRH5M was plotted for each amino acid residue of PfRH5 ligand. The differential interaction patterns around amino acid position 203 for both alleles (C/Y) were indicated (inset)Back to article page
