Description

Model of the Leucine Rich Repeat (LRR) domain from human NLRP1 protein in cartoon form. "A leucine-rich repeat (LRR) is a protein structural motif that forms an α/β horseshoe fold" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leucine-rich_repeat (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leucine-rich_repeat) NACHT, LRR and PYD domains-containing protein 1 (NLRP1) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NLRP1 gene: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NLRP1 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NLRP1) Model based on the Protein Data Bank entry 4IM6: http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/explore/explore.do?structureId=4im6 (http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/explore/explore.do?structureId=4im6) STL file created using VMD: http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/vmd/ (http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/vmd/)
