Fitting Procedure ?
Details Model for fitting was generated by AlphaFold using the construct's amino acid sequence. Flexible fitting into corresponding densities was performed using ISOLDE tool in ChimeraX. The resulting structures were copied and fitted as rigid bodies into the 3D map by the "fit in map" function in Chimera.
