About this 3D model

Model of the Leucine Rich Repeat (LRR) domain from human NLRP1 protein in cartoon form. "A leucine-rich repeat (LRR) is a protein structural motif that forms an ?/? horseshoe fold" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leucine-rich_repeat NACHT, LRR and PYD domains-containing protein 1 (NLRP1) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NLRP1 gene: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NLRP1 Model based on the Protein Data Bank entry 4IM6: http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/explore/explore.do?structureId=4im6 STL file created using VMD: http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/vmd/
