Extended Data Fig. 5: Influence of CBI1 on the conformational dynamics of the BAX α1-α2 loop.

a, A difference distance matrix plot derived from molecular dynamics simulations of wild-type BAX in the presence or absence of CBI1 demonstrated the greatest effect of small molecule C126-derivatization on the protein dynamics of the α1-α2 loop. b-c, Representative images from the molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of BAX in the absence (b) and presence (c) of CBI1, demonstrating distinct positioning of the α1-α2 loop (purple).
