THE LINKER OF DES-GLU84 CALMODULIN IS BENT AS SEEN IN THE CRYSTAL STRUCTURE
Contents |
Overview
The crystal structure of a mutant calmodulin (CaM) lacking Glu-84 has been, refined to R = 0.23 using data measured to 2.9-A resolution. In native CaM, the central helix is fully extended, and the molecule is dumbbell shaped., In contrast, the deletion of Glu-84 causes a bend of 95 degrees in the, linker region of the central helix at Ile-85. However, EF-hand domains 1, and 2 (lobe 1,2) do not touch lobe 3,4. The length, by alpha-carbon, separation, of des-Glu84-CaM is 56 A; that of native CaM is 64 A. The, shape of des-Glu84-CaM is similar to that of native CaM, as it is bound to, the target peptide of myosin light-chain kinase. This result supports the, proposal that the linker region of the central helix of CaM functions as a, flexible tether.
