Crystal structure of VAP2 from Crotalus atrox venom (Form 2-5 crystal)
Overview
Catrocollastatin/vascular apoptosis-inducing protein (VAP)2B is a, metalloproteinase from Crotalus atrox venom, possessing, metalloproteinase/disintegrin/cysteine-rich (MDC) domains that bear the, typical domain architecture of a disintegrin and metalloproteinase, (ADAM)/adamalysin/reprolysin family proteins. Here we describe crystal, structures of catrocollastatin/VAP2B in three different crystal forms, representing the first reported crystal structures of a member of the, monomeric class of this family of proteins. The overall structures show, good agreement with both monomers of atypical homodimeric VAP1. Comparison, of the six catrocollastatin/VAP2B monomer structures and the structures of, VAP1 reveals a dynamic, modular architecture that may be important for the, functions of ADAM/adamalysin/reprolysin family proteins.
