Fig. 1. Many PCNA partners share overlapping binding sites. The main regions of the
PCNA ring involved in protein-protein interactions are highlighted along with
the relevant partners. These are: (1) the interdomain connecting loop (aa L121
to E132; red); (2) the inner side
-helices at the N-terminus (pink);
and (3) the C-terminal tail (blue). For clarity, only one region per each
monomer is highlighted. The PCNA structure was generated with the program
Swiss-PDBViewer from the PDB file 1AXC, rendered with QuickTime 3D and
composed in Adobe PhotoShop.
