A NOVEL, HIGHLY STABLE FOLD OF THE IMMUNOGLOBULIN BINDING DOMAIN OF STREPTOCOCCAL PROTEIN G
Overview
The high-resolution three-dimensional structure of a single immunoglobulin, binding domain (B1, which comprises 56 residues including the NH2-terminal, Met) of protein G from group G Streptococcus has been determined in, solution by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy on the basis of 1058, experimental restraints. The average atomic root-mean-square distribution, about the mean coordinate positions is 0.27 angstrom (A) for the backbone, atoms, 0.65 A for all atoms, and 0.39 A for atoms excluding disordered, surface side chains. The structure has no disulfide bridges and is, composed of a four-stranded beta sheet, on top of which lies a long helix., The central two strands (beta 1 and beta 4), comprising the NH2- and, COOH-termini, are parallel, and the outer two strands (beta 2 and beta 3), are connected by the helix in a +3x crossover. This novel topology (-1, +3x, -1), coupled with an extensive hydrogen-bonding network and a tightly, packed and buried hydrophobic core, is probably responsible for the, extreme thermal stability of this small domain (reversible melting at 87, degrees C).
