CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF CALCIUM AND INTEGRIN BINDING PROTEIN
Overview
Calcium- and integrin-binding protein 1 (CIB1) is involved in the process, of platelet aggregation by binding the cytoplasmic tail of the alpha(IIb), subunit of the platelet-specific integrin alpha(Iib)beta(3). Although, poorly understood, it is widely believed that CIB1 acts as a global, signaling regulator because it is expressed in many tissues that do not, express integrin alpha(Iib)beta(3). We report the structure of human CIB1, to a resolution of 2.3 A, crystallized as a dimer. The dimer interface, includes an extensive hydrophobic patch in a crystal form with 80% solvent, content. Although the dimer form of CIB1 may not be physiologically, relevant, this intersub-unit surface is likely to be linked to alpha(IIb), binding and to the binding of other signaling partner proteins.
