Fig. 4From: The functional capacity of plantaricin-producing Lactobacillus plantarum SF9C and S-layer-carrying Lactobacillus brevis SF9B to withstand gastrointestinal transit3D structures of PlnJK and PlnEF plantaricin peptides of SF9C strain predicted by the homology modelling and their helical wheel projections analysed by HeliQuest. aa—the amino acid residues (the one-letter code for amino acids is used); yellow—hydrophobic residues; purple—serine and threonine residues; dark blue—basic residues; red—acidic residues, pink—asparagine and glutamine residues; grey—alanine and glycine residues, light blue—histidine residues; green—proline residues; H—hydrophobicity; μH—hydrophobic moment; z—net charge (calculated at pH = 7.4, under the assumption that histidine is neutral and that the N-terminal amino group and the C-terminal carboxyl group of the sequence are uncharged)Back to article page
