RAT ANNEXIN V CRYSTAL STRUCTURE: CA2+-INDUCED CONFORMATIONAL CHANGES
Overview
Annexins are a family of calcium- and phospholipid-binding proteins, implicated in mediating membrane-related processes such as secretion, signal transduction, and ion channel activity. The crystal structure of, rat annexin V was solved to 1.9 angstrom resolution by multiple, isomorphous replacement. Unlike previously solved annexin V structures, all four domains bound calcium in this structure. Calcium binding in the, third domain induced a large relocation of the calcium-binding loop, regions, exposing the single tryptophan residue to the solvent. These, alterations in annexin V suggest a role for domain 3 in calcium-triggered, interaction with phospholipid membranes.
