Retinol binding protein (RBP) from PDB file 1RBP
thingiverse
Retinol binding protein is a blood serum transporter that binds retinol (vitamin A) for transport through the body. As a hydrophobic molecule, retinol requires a protein transporter with hydrophobic amino acid side chains within its interior barrel and hydrophilic, charged side chains on its exterior surface. To demonstrate protein structure and function to high school students, UCSF Chimera was utilized to manipulate the PDB file 1RBP, with retinol displayed as spheres and key hydrophobic residues shown as sticks. After exporting the scene as a .stl file, it was opened in Autodesk Print Utility, optimized, and sent to MakerWare for 3D printing with specified settings.
