STRUCTURE OF BCR-HOMOLOGY (BH) DOMAIN
Overview
Proteins such as the product of the break-point cluster region, chimaerin, and the Src homology 3-binding protein 3BP1, are GTPase activating, proteins (GAPs) for members of the Rho subfamily of small GTP-binding, proteins (G proteins or GTPases). A 200-residue region, named the, breakpoint cluster region-homology (BH) domain, is responsible for the GAP, activity. We describe here the crystal structure of the BH domain from the, p85 subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase at 2.0 A resolution. The, domain is composed of seven helices, having a previously unobserved, arrangement. A core of four helices contains most residues that are, conserved in the BH family. Their packing suggests the location of a, G-protein binding site. This structure of a GAP-like domain for small, GTP-binding proteins provides a framework for analyzing the function of, this class of molecules.
