CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF A COLLAGEN VIII NC1 DOMAIN TRIMER

Overview

Collagen VIII is a major component of Descemet's membrane and is also, found in vascular subendothelial matrices. The C-terminal non-collagenous, domain (NC1) domain of collagen VIII, which is a member of the C1q-like, protein family, forms a stable trimer and is thought to direct the, assembly of the collagen triple helix, as well as polygonal supramolecular, structures. We have solved the crystal structure of the mouse, alpha1(VIII)(3) NC1 domain trimer at 1.9 A resolution. Each subunit of the, intimate NC1 trimer consists of a ten-stranded beta-sandwich. The surface, of the collagen VIII NC1 trimer presents three strips of partially exposed, aromatic residues shown to interact with the non-ionic detergent CHAPS, which are likely to be involved in supramolecular assemblies.
