PORIN CONFORMATION IN THE ABSENCE OF CALCIUM; REFINED STRUCTURE AT 2.5 ANGSTROMS RESOLUTION
Overview
The crystal structure of porin from Rhodobacter capsulatus in the absence of divalent calcium ions has been refined to convergence at a resolution of 2.5 A using the simulated annealing refinement method. The final model consists of all 301 amino acid residues, 77 solvent molecules, one tris(hydroxymethyl)-aminomethane molecule and one unknown ligand modeled as n-octyltetraoxyethylene. A superposition with the previously described model containing three calcium ions showed structural changes at the segment 108-116 of the inner loop beta 5-beta 6, and at loops beta 8-beta 9 and beta 11-beta 12 at the extracellular side of the porin molecule. Evidence is presented that the conformational changes depend on the presence or absence of calcium ions. A possible influence on porin function is discussed.
