HUMAN TETRANECTIN, A TRIMERIC PLASMINOGEN BINDING PROTEIN WITH AN ALPHA-HELICAL COILED COIL

Overview

Tetranectin is a plasminogen kringle 4-binding protein. The crystal, structure has been determined at 2.8 A resolution using molecular, replacement. Human tetranectin is a homotrimer forming a triple, alpha-helical coiled coil. Each monomer consists of a carbohydrate, recognition domain (CRD) connected to a long alpha-helix. Tetranectin has, been classified in a distinct group of the C-type lectin superfamily but, has structural similarity to the proteins in the group of collectins., Tetranectin has three intramolecular disulfide bridges. Two of these are, conserved in the C-type lectin superfamily, whereas the third is present, only in long-form CRDs. Tetranectin represents the first structure of a, long-form CRD with intact calcium-binding sites. In tetranectin, the third, disulfide ... [(full description)]
