Figure 26.1.3.9

Photograph of sections z = 35/60 to 44/60 of the three-dimensional electron-density map of hen egg-white lysozyme at 2 Å resolution. AA′ shows the axis of a length of α-helix lying in the plane of the sections. B indicates an α-helix more nearly normal to the sections. C indicates the disulfide bridge between residues 30 and 115, the sulfur atoms of which lie one above the other. The side chain of a phenylalanine residue is located four residues along the helix from the disulfide, towards the lower sections. Reproduced with permission from Nature (Blake et al., 1965[link]).
