Fig 1 Crystal structure of the cockroach allergen Bla g 2. Left, Structure of Bla g 2 showing residues at the region of the catalytic site (D215, D32 [1yg9.pdb]).19Right, The zinc ion (yellow sphere) with coordinating residues and interatomic distances (top) and aspartate positions in Bla g 2 (red aspartates on blue ribbon) and in pepsin (orange aspartates on yellow ribbon, bottom).

Fig 2 Crystal structure of recombinant cat allergen Fel d 1 (1puo.pdb). Fel d 1 is a 2-chain heterodimer with the C-terminus of chain 1 (in gray) and the N-terminus of chain 2 (in white).21 The heterodimers associate together to form a larger dimeric structure. Also shown are various T-cell epitopes in chain 1 (IPC-1 and IPC-2) and chain 2 (P2:1 and P2:2).
