THE INDEPENDENT STRUCTURE OF THE ANTITRYPTIC REACTIVE SITE LOOP OF BOWMAN-BIRK INHIBITOR AND SUNFLOWER TRYPSIN INHIBITOR-1
Overview
Bowman-Birk inhibitor (BBI) proteins contain an inhibitory motif, comprising a disulfide-bonded sequence that interacts with serine, proteinases. Recently, a small 14-residue peptide from sunflowers, (SFTI-1), which has potent anti-trypsin activity, has been found to have, the same motif. However, this peptide also has an unusual head-to-tail, cyclisation. To address the role of the core inhibitory sequence itself, we have solved the (1)H-NMR solution structure of an antitryptic, 11-residue cyclic peptide that corresponds to the core reactive site loops, of both SFTI-1 and Bowman-Birk inhibitor proteins. A comparison is made, between the secondary chemical shifts found in this family and the, canonical regions of several other inhibitors, giving some insight into, relative flexibility and hydrogen bonding patterns in these inhibitors., The solution structure of the core peptide in isolation is found to retain, essentially the same three-dimensional arrangement of both backbone and, side chains as observed in larger antitryptic BBI and SFTI-1 fragments as, well as in the complete proteins. The retention of the canonical, conformation in the core peptide explains the peptids inhibitory potency., It therefore represents a minimization of both the BBI and SFTI-1, sequences. We conclude that the core peptide is a conformationally, defined, canonical scaffold, which can serve as a minimal platform for the, engineering of biological activity.
