The <scene name='Sandbox27/Alpha_helices/1'>alpha helices</scene> shown in pink represent some of the hydrophobic elements throughout the crystallized structure of bacteriorhodopsin. The <scene name='Sandbox27/Beta_sheets/ | The <scene name='Sandbox27/Alpha_helices/1'>alpha helices</scene> shown in pink represent some of the hydrophobic elements throughout the crystallized structure of bacteriorhodopsin. The <scene name='Sandbox27/Beta_sheets/2'>beta strands</scene>, another type of hydrophobic element in the protein, are shown in purple, while the <scene name='Sandbox27/Ligands/4'>ligands</scene> (specifically, alpha-d-glucose, retinal, and 2,10,23-trimethyl-tetracosane) embedded within the protein are displayed in yellow. | ||
