SOLUTION STRUCTURE OF THE HUMAN CHEMOKINE HCC-2, NMR, 30 STRUCTURES
Structural highlights
FunctionCCL15_HUMAN Chemotactic factor that attracts T-cells and monocytes, but not neutrophils, eosinophils, or B-cells. Acts mainly via CC chemokine receptor CCR1. Also binds to CCR3. CCL15(22-92), CCL15(25-92) and CCL15(29-92) are more potent chemoattractants than the small-inducible cytokine A15.[1] Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf. Publication Abstract from PubMedHCC-2, a 66-amino acid residue human CC chemokine, was reported to induce chemotaxis on monocytes, T-lymphocytes, and eosinophils. The three-dimensional structure of HCC-2 has been determined by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and restrained molecular dynamics calculations on the basis of 871 experimental restraints. The structure is well-defined, exhibiting average root-mean-square deviations of 0.58 and 0.96 A for the backbone heavy atoms and all heavy atoms of residues 5-63, respectively. In contrast to most other chemokines, subtle structural differences impede dimer formation of HCC-2 in a concentration range of 0.1 microM to 2 mM. HCC-2, however, exhibits the same structural elements as the other chemokines, i.e., a triple-stranded antiparallel beta-sheet covered by an alpha-helix, showing that the chemokine fold is not influenced by quaternary interactions. Structural investigations with a HCC-2 mutant prove that a third additional disulfide bond present in wild-type HCC-2 is not necessary for maintaining the relative orientation of the helix and the beta-sheet.
