Figure 9 Molecular modelling of interaction between lipoteichoic acid and chitin-glucan. A: Trapping of lipoteichoic acid (LTA) (colored in yellow) by chitin-glucan (CG) (chitin moiety colored in orange and glucan moiety colored in green); B: Folding of CG showing a small hole occupied by the shortest lipidic side chain of LTA (chitin moiety colored in orange and glucan moiety colored in green); C: Interactions of LTA (colored in magenta) with CG (chitin moiety colored in orange and glucan moiety colored in green) via four hydrogen bonds (yellow dashed line).
