PEPTIDE OF HUMAN APOLIPOPROTEIN C-II
Contents |
Overview
We have studied the three-dimensional structure of a biologically active, peptide of apolipoprotein C-II (apoC-II) in the presence of lipid mimetics, by CD and NMR spectroscopy. This peptide, corresponding to residues 44-79, of apoC-II, has been shown to reverse the symptoms of genetic apoC-II, deficiency in a human subject. A comparison of alpha-proton secondary, shifts and CD spectroscopic data indicates that the structure of, apoC-II(44-79) is similar in the presence of dodecylphosphocholine and, sodium dodecyl sulfate. The three-dimensional structure of apoC-II(44-79), in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate, determined by relaxation matrix, calculations, contains two amphipathic helical domains formed by residues, 50-58 and 67-75, separated by a non-helical linker centered at Tyr63. The, C-terminal helix is terminated by a loop formed by residues 76-79. The, C-terminal helix is better defined and has a larger hydrophobic face than, the N-terminal helix, which leads us to propose that the C-terminal helix, together with the non-helical Ile66 constitute the primary lipid binding, domain of apoC-II(44-79). Based on our structure we suggest a new, mechanism of lipoprotein lipase activation in which both helices of, apoC-II(44-79) remain lipid bound, while the seven-residue interhelical, linker extends away from the lipid surface in order to project Tyr63 into, the apoC-II binding site of lipoprotein lipase.
