Solution structure of human translationally controlled tumor protein

Overview

Human translationally controlled tumor protein (TCTP) is a growth-related, calcium-binding protein. We determined the solution structure and backbone, dynamics of human TCTP, and identified the calcium-binding site of human, TCTP using multi-dimensional NMR spectroscopy. The overall structure of, human TCTP has a rather rigid well-folded core and a very flexible long, loop connected by a short two-strand beta-sheet, which shows a conserved, fold in the TCTP family. The C-terminal portions of loop L(alpha3beta8), and strand beta9 and the N-terminal region of strand beta8 may form a, calcium-binding site in the human TCTP structure, which is largely, conserved in the sequence alignment of TCTPs. The K(d) value for the, calcium binding is 0.022-0.025M indicating a very weak calcium-binding, site.
