2 FIG 1 Structure of the polyphenolic catechins found in green tea.
Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology  , DOI: ( /j.jaci )

3 FIG 2 Computer-generated models of CD4 binding. Space-filling model of CD4 domains D1 (red) and D2 (blue). The models demonstrate the extracellular component of the CD4 molecule with residues Phe 43 (cyan) and Arg 59 (green). A, Model of HIV-1 gp120 (purple) binding to CD4. B, Computer-generated model of EGCG and CD4. The white, black, and yellow spheres represent the oxygen, carbon, and hydrogen atoms, respectively, of the EGCG molecule. Models courtesy of the National Center for Macromolecular Imaging, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Tex. Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology  , DOI: ( /j.jaci )
