Solution structure of the Anti-HIV Protein Cyanovirin-N in its Monomeric and Domain-Swapped Dimeric Forms

 

Comparison of solution structure of monomeric form of CVN with X-ray structure of the domain-swapped dimer

Comparison of solution and X-ray structures of domain-swapped dimer
(Note that the residual dipolar couplings measured for the dimer in solution are not compatible with the relative orientations of the two halves of the domain-swapped dimer observed in the crystal structure)
