Figure 2

A 2D topology model of BauA and FptA. Both whole proteins include 2 domains comprising a cork domain at N terminal of the protein and a trans membrane barrel at the C terminal. These pictures show only the barrel topology composed of 22 trans membrane beta sheet, 10 short periplasmic turns, and 11 large extracellular loops. In both predicted topology, the loop number 5 is the largest and loop number 1 is the shortest.
