THREE-DIMENSIONAL STRUCTURE OF RECOMBINANT HUMAN INTERFERON-GAMMA.

Contents

Overview

The x-ray crystal structure of recombinant human interferon-gamma has been, determined with the use of multiple-isomorphous-replacement techniques., Interferon-gamma, which is dimeric in solution, crystallizes with two, dimers related by a noncrystallographic twofold axis in the asymmetric, unit. The protein is primarily alpha helical, with six helices in each, subunit that comprise approximately 62 percent of the structure; there is, no beta sheet. The dimeric structure of human interferon-gamma is, stabilized by the intertwining of helices across the subunit interface, with multiple intersubunit interactions.

Disease

Known diseases associated with this structure: AIDS, rapid progression to OMIM:[147570], Aplastic anemia OMIM:[147570], Hepatitis C virus, resistance to OMIM:[147570], Interferon, immune, deficiency OMIM:[147570], TSC2 angiomyolipomas, renal, modifier of OMIM:[147570], Tuberculosis, susceptibility to OMIM:[147570]
