STAPHYLOCOCCAL ENTEROTOXIN A

Overview

Staphylococcal enterotoxins are prototype superantigens characterized by, their ability to bind to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II, molecules and subsequently activate a large fraction of T-lymphocytes. The, crystal structure of staphylococcal enterotoxin type A (SEA), a 27 kDa, monomeric protein, was determined to 1.9 A resolution with an R-factor of, 19.9% by multiple isomorphous replacement. SEA is a two domain protein, composed of a beta-barrel and a beta-grasp motif demonstrating the same, general structure as staphylococcal enterotoxins SEB and TSST-1. Unique, for SEA, however, is a Zn2+ coordination site involved in MHC class II, binding. Four amino acids including Ser1, His187, His225 and Asp227 were, found to be involved in direct coordination of the metal ion. ... [(full description)]
