CIRCULARLY PERMUTED BB2-CRYSTALLIN

Overview

The betagamma-crystallins form a superfamily of eye lens proteins, comprised of multiple Greek motifs that are symmetrically organized into, domains and higher assemblies. In the betaB2-crystallin dimer each, polypeptide folds into two similar domains that are related to monomeric, gamma-crystallin by domain swapping. The crystal structure of the, circularly permuted two-domain betaB2 polypeptide shows that permutation, converts intermolecular domain pairing into intramolecular pairing., However, the dimeric permuted protein is, in fact, half a native tetramer., This result shows how the sequential order of domains in multi-domain, proteins can affect quaternary domain assembly.
