1H NMR STUDY OF THE SOLUTION STRUCTURE OF AC-AMP21H NMR STUDY OF THE SOLUTION STRUCTURE OF AC-AMP2

Structural highlights 1mmc is a 1 chain structure with sequence from Amaranthus caudatus. Full experimental information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Method: Solution NMR, 26 models Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function AMP_AMACA Chitin-binding protein with a defensive function against numerous chitin containing fungal pathogens. It is also a potent inhibitor of Gram-positive bacteria. Publication Abstract from PubMed The conformation in water of antimicrobial protein 2 from Amaranthus caudatus (Ac-AMP2) was determined using 1H NMR, DIANA and restrained molecular modeling. Ac-AMP2 is a 30 amino acid residue, lectin-like protein that specifically binds to chitin, a polymer of beta-1,4-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine. After sequence specific resonance assignments, a total of 198 distance restraints were collected from 2D NOESY buildup spectra at 500 MHz at pH 2, supplemented by a 2D NOESY spectrum at 600 MHz. The location of the three previously unassigned disulfide bridges was determined from preliminary DIANA structures, using a statistical analysis of intercystinyl distances. The solution structure of Ac-AMP2 is presented as a set of 26 DIANA structures, further refined by restrained molecular dynamics using a simulated annealing protocol in the AMBER force field, with a backbone r.m.s.d. for the well defined Glu3-Cys28 segment of 0.69(+/-0.12) angstroms. The main structural element is an antiparallel beta-sheet from Met13 to Lys23 including a betaI-turn over Gln17-Phel8 with a beta bulge at Gly19. In addition, a beta'I turn over Arg6-Gly7, a beta'III turn over Ser11-Gly12 and a helical turn from Gly24 to Cys28 are identified. This structure is very similar to the equivalent regions of the X-ray structure of wheat germ agglutinin and the NMR structure of hevein.
