- | === | + | ====closed==== |
- | + | The closed state of neurofibromin has both protomers in a closed conformation, which inhibits the binding of Ras to the GRD of neurofibromin due to the HEAT/ARM blocking the GRD. A metal binding site between the N-HEAT/ARM domain and the GRD-Sec14-PH linker stabilize the closed conformation. This site is coordinated by three residues, C1032, H1558, and H1576, and a water molecule. This binding site is preferential for zinc. | |
- | + | ====open==== | |
- | === | + | The open state of neurofibromin has one protomer in a open conformation and the other in a closed conformation. The protomer in the open conformation allows for the binding of Ras because of reorientation of the GRD and Sec14-PH domains. In the open conformation, the metal binding site found in the closed conformation is lost due to separation of the N-HEAT/ARM and the cysteine residue from the histidine residues founds in the GRD-Sec14-PH linker. |
