RECEPTOR BINDING DOMAIN OF BOVINE ALPHA-2-MACROGLOBULIN
Overview
BACKGROUND: The large plasma proteinase inhibitors of the alpha, 2-macroglobulin superfamily inhibit proteinases by capturing them within a, central cavity of the inhibitor molecule. After reaction with the, proteinase, the alpha-macroglobulin-proteinase complex binds to the, alpha-macroglobulin receptor, present in the liver and other tissues, and, becomes endocytosed and rapidly removed from the circulation. The complex, binds to the receptor via recognition sites located on a separate domain, of approximately 138 residues positioned at the C terminus of the, alpha-macroglobulin subunit. RESULTS: The crystal structure of the, receptor-binding domain of bovine alpha 2-macroglobulin (bRBD) has been, determined at a resolution of 1.9 A. The domain primarily comprises a, nine-strand beta ... [(full description)]
