Crystal Structure of the PRYSPRY-domain
Overview
We determined the first structure of PRYSPRY, a domain found in over 500, different proteins, involved in innate immune signaling, cytokine, signaling suppression, development, cell growth and retroviral, restriction. The fold encompasses a 7-stranded and a 6-stranded, antiparallel beta-sheet, arranged in a beta-sandwich. In the crystal, PRYSPRY forms a dimer where the C-terminus of an acceptor molecule binds, to the concave surface of a donor molecule, which represents a putative, interaction site. Mutations in the PRYSPRY domains of Pyrin, which are, responsible for familial Mediterranean fever, map on the putative PRYSPRY, interaction site.
