Crystal structure of wheat HSP16.9. (a) The ribbon structure of wheat HSP16.9 reported by Van Montfort et al. (PDB ID: 1GME) [43]. Wheat HSP16.9 is a homo-dodecameric protein consisting of two disk-like layers. The three HSP16.9 dimers in the upper disk are colored in green, blue and red, respectively. The lower disk is colored in gray. (b) The ribbon structure of wheat HSP16.9 monomer. The N-terminal region, α-crystallin domain and C-terminal tail are colored in blue, red, and green, respectively.
