Contacts in Flagellar Filament
Nine chains of flagellin taken from a model filament. Each chain is a different color.

The central chain is decorated with contacting atoms from the other eight chains (within 4 �).

Contacts in Flagellar Filament
All atoms here are colored by evolutionary conservation.
Atoms in the central chain are spacefilled to van der Waals radii.
Contacting atoms from other chains are shown as dot surfaces containing small spheres.
Zoom and rotate to see details. The next slide provides a comparision.

ConSurf colors are based on 110 sequences from Swiss-Prot.

Viewing Help for MolSlides:

Here are the recommended browsers.
Maximize your window, then View, Full Screen (F11).
For a small (800 x 600 pixel) window, reduce the text size (View, Text Size). Then Reload the MolSlides.
Keystroke controls (not all work in every browser, but the links above each slide Next, Previous, 1, 2, ... 9 always work.):
- Next Slide: Spacebar, Enter, Down Arrow, Right Arrow, PgDn.
- Previous Slide: Backspace, Up Arrow, Left Arrow, PgUp.
- Slide Number: 1-9.
- First Slide: Home, Esc.
- Last Slide: End.
Interactivity:
- To rotate the molecule, drag it with the mouse.
- In slides with two molecules, the bottom molecule will follow rotation or zooming done with the mouse on the top molecule (Windows only). Rotation/zoom by mouse on the bottom molecule does not affect the top molecule.
- Spinning can be turned on or off with Chime's menu: Click on MDL, then Rotation.
- To zoom the molecule, hold down the Shift key and drag up or down with the mouse.
- Clicking on any atom identifies it in the browser status line.

Troubleshooting MolSlides:

Can't see the molecule(s)?

This set of MolSlides requires the free MDL Chime plugin (to display the molecules) installed in a compatible browser.
Test your Chime.
If some (or all) slides have blank rectangles without any molecules, some (or all) of the necessary PDB files may be missing from the folder (directory) supplying this MolSlides file. This set of MolSlides needs the following PDB files:
