Crystal Structure of the Thrombospondin-1 Type 1 Repeats
Contents |
Overview
Thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1) contains three type 1 repeats (TSRs), which, mediate cell attachment, glycosaminoglycan binding, inhibition of, angiogenesis, activation of TGFbeta, and inhibition of matrix, metalloproteinases. The crystal structure of the TSRs reported in this, article reveals a novel, antiparallel, three-stranded fold that consists, of alternating stacked layers of tryptophan and arginine residues from, respective strands, capped by disulfide bonds on each end. The front face, of the TSR contains a right-handed spiral, positively charged groove that, might be the "recognition" face, mediating interactions with various, ligands. This is the first high-resolution crystal structure of a TSR, domain that provides a prototypic architecture for structural and, functional exploration of the diverse members of the TSR superfamily.
