Three-dimensional structure of the protein AvrStb9 predicted with the ColabFold v1.5.2: AlphaFold2.
(a) An overlay of the 3D structures of the virulent avrStb9 protein (isolate IPO323 in red) and of the avirulent AvrStb9 protein (isolate IPO09593 in blue). (b) The 3D structure of the virulent avrStb9 protein with the localization of the five residues potentially involved in virulence (highlighted in yellow). The (c) virulent avrStb9 and (d) avirulent AvrStb9 proteins with Top panel: zoom-in on the five residues in the 3D structure, and Bottom panel: distances (in Å) between the five residues.
