Introduction

2fkl is located in the protein called APP Amyloid precursor protein going from residue 126 to 189. This proteins plays a major role into the developpement of alzheimer desease[1]. APP cleavage by BACE and gamma secretase gives endeed rise to the Aβ peptide, which forms at the end an aggegation of amyloid plaques [2] . As the interaction between copper ion and APP can modulate the production of Aβ pepetide [3] and also the progression of Alzheimer disease, the structure study of the Cu-binding site of this protein can give a lot of informations for the developpement of novel therapeutics.







Structure

The three dimensional structure of the Cu Binding Site was determined by resonance multidimensional NMR spectroscopy.
2fkl is constituted by two chains called A and B[4]. Both chains have the same length and the same organization. Each chain also contains an going from the residues 147 to 159 packed against a triple-strand beta sheet. The going from residues 133-139, the going from residues 162-167, and the going from residues 181 to 188. There is one more Beta sheet, B0, formed by the residues 127 to 139 of the B chain

Between the Cysteine 133 and the Cystein 187 we can find a which links and another one which links the alpha helix to the strand Beta 3. Between the cysteine 144 and the cysteine 174 we can describe another .

biological role

APP is a transmembrane metalloprotein, which belongs to a large family of APLP (amyloid precursor-like protein)., Thanks to its extracellular Cu-binding domain (CuBD) constituated by the amino acids describe above, APP can modulate copper transport. The Cu binding domain of the apo protein seem to be able to fixe Cu(II) and to reduce it in Cu(I). More precisely, the Tyr 168, the His 147 and the His 151 participate in Cu (II) binding but not the methionine. In addition two molecule of water one axial and one equatorial play an important role in the formation of the complex APP-Cu(II) complex (pdb ID : 2FK1). The arrangement of the atoms involved in the Cu (II) binding adopt a square pyramidal geometry which can be classified as a Type 2 non-blueCu(II) center. In this type of center Cu(II) is bound by two or three nitrogene ligands ands oxygen ligands. Meth170 is supposed to act as an electron donor to Cu(II). In the Cu(I) binding geometry (PDB id 2fk2), there is no axial water molecules ; the site adopts also a distorted square planar arrangement which is unfavorable for Cu(I) suggesting that this states is not favorable and can lead to the tranfert of the Cu (I) to others proteins.
