SOLUTION STRUCTURE OF A CHIMERIC LEKTI-DOMAIN
Overview
The conversion of an alpha-helical to a beta-strand conformation and the, presence of chameleon sequences are fascinating from the perspective that, such structural features are implicated in the induction of, amyloid-related fatal diseases. In this study, we have determined the, solution structure of a chimeric domain (Dom1PI) from the multidomain, Kazal-type serine proteinase inhibitor LEKTI using multidimensional NMR, spectroscopy. This chimeric protein was constructed to investigate the, reasons for differences in the folds of the homologous LEKTI domains 1 and, 6 [Lauber, T., et al. (2003) J. Mol. Biol. 328, 205-219]. In Dom1PI, two, adjacent phenylalanine residues (F28 and F29) of domain 1 were substituted, with proline and isoleucine, respectively, as found in the corresponding, ... [(full description)]
