Publication Abstract from PubMed
Placental ribonuclease inhibitor (RI) binds diverse mammalian RNases with dissociation constants that are in the femtomolar range. Previous studies on the complexes of RI with RNase A and angiogenin revealed that RI utilises largely distinctive interactions to achieve high affinity for these two ligands. Here we report a 2.0 angstroms resolution crystal structure of RI in complex with a third ligand, eosinophil-derived neurotoxin (EDN), and a mutational analysis based on this structure. The RI-EDN interface is more extensive than those of the other two complexes and contains a considerably larger set of interactions. Few of the contacts present in the RI-angiogenin complex are replicated; the correspondence to the RI-RNase A complex is somewhat greater, but still modest. The energetic contributions of various interface regions differ strikingly from those in the earlier complexes. These findings provide insight into the structural basis for the unusual combination of high avidity and relaxed stringency that RI displays.
