THREE-DIMENSIONAL STRUCTURE OF THE-LONG-NEUROTOXIN FROM COBRA VENOM


Overview

The three-dimensional structure of alpha-cobra-toxin, the "long" neurotoxin from the venom of Naja naja siamensis, has been determined at 2.8-A resolution. Crystals grown as hexagonal needles have space group P6522 with unit cell parameters a = b = 74.59 A, c = 42.89 A; one molecule per asymmetric unit. Phases were determined with a single isomorphous derivative with HgI2 by using the anomalous scattering of the single-site HgI2 molecule to resolve the phase ambiguity. The polypeptide chain folds into three major loops and one tail emerging from a globular head. The protruding long central loop (residues 21-40) is flanked on either side by two shorter loops (residues 4-13 and 44-55); the tail piece (residues 63-71) hangs behind this loop. The molecular conformation is determined by four disulfides in the head and one at the tip of the long loop, by a triple-stranded beta-pleated sheet involving this loop, and by hydrophobic interactions stabilizing the other two loops. The structure of alpha-cobratoxin is compared to that described for the "short" erabutoxin b which shows similar arrangement of structurally and functionally invariant groups.
