Function

TRFL_BOVIN Transferrins are iron binding transport proteins which can bind two Fe(3+) ions in association with the binding of an anion, usually bicarbonate.^[1] ^[2] Lactotransferrin has antimicrobial activity. The most effective inhibitory activity was seen against E.coli and P.aeruginosa.^[3] ^[4] Lactoferricin B is an antimicrobial peptide. Inhibits the growth of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria.^[5] ^[6] The lactotransferrin transferrin-like domain 1 functions as a serine protease of the peptidase S60 family that cuts arginine rich regions. This function contributes to the antimicrobial activity.^[7] ^[8]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

Bovine lactoferrin, a 76-kDa glycoprotein (Ala1-Arg689) consists of two similar N- and C-terminal molecular halves with the ability to bind two Fe(3+) ions. The N-terminal half, designated as the N-lobe (Ala1-Arg341) and the C-terminal half designated as the C-lobe (Tyr342-Arg689) have similar iron-binding properties, but the resistant C-lobe prolongs the physiological role of bovine lactoferrin in the digestive tract. Here, we report the crystal structure of true C-lobe, which was produced by limited proteolysis of bovine lactoferrin using trypsin. In the first proteolysis step, two fragments of 21 kDa (Glu86-Lys282) and 45 kDa (Ser283-Arg689) were generated because two lysine residues, Lys85 and Lys282, in the structure of iron-saturated bovine lactoferrin were fully exposed. The 45-kDa fragment was further digested at the newly exposed side chain of Arg341, generating a 38-kDa perfect C-lobe (Tyr342-Arg689). By contrast, the apo-lactoferrin was cut by trypsin only at Arg341, which was exposed in the structure of apo-lactoferrin, whereas the other two sites with Lys85 and Lys282 are inaccessible. The purified iron-saturated C-lobe was crystallized at pH 4.0. The structure was determined by the molecular replacement method using coordinates of the C-terminal half (Arg342-Arg689) of intact camel apo-lactoferrin. The structure determination revealed that the iron atom was absent and the iron-binding cleft was found in a wide-open conformation, whereas in the previously determined structure of iron-saturated C-lobe of bovine lactoferrin, the iron atom was present and the iron-binding site was in the closed confirmation.
