LASSI: A lattice model for simulating phase transitions of multivalent proteins
Fig 6
Architecture of the linear multivalent systems.
(a, b) Cartoons to depict the An+Bn and An-Bn systems, respectively. Different colors of beads denote different species of stickers. Note that An-Bn can be simply considered as An+Bn where the two different sections of the proteins are joined together. (c) Linker lengths involved in the architecture (see also Table 1). Each sticker has a neighboring spacer bead that is 1 lattice site apart whereas the neighboring spacer beads are 4 lattice sites apart. This means that consecutive stickers are 6 lattice sites apart and also that the linkers connecting the two have a positive effective solvation volume.
