Fun science: Auxin-binding protein

3D printable auxin-binding protein 1 in complex with 1-naphthalene acetic acid based on data from article: E.-J. Woo, J. Marshall, J. Bauly, J.-G. Chen, M. Venis, R.M. Napier, R.W. Pickersgill: Crystal structure of auxin-binding protein 1 in complex with auxin, EMBO J., 21 (2002), pp. 2877-2885. (PDB molecular file http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/explore.do?structureId=1lrh)

Binding site amino acids, that interacts with IAA, are "highlighted". The zinc ion (tiny ball) is also "highlighted". The 3D model is additionally embedded with magnets that hold the whole model together.
