STRUCTURE OF A THROMBOSPONDIN C-TERMINAL FRAGMENT REVEALS A NOVEL CALCIUM CORE IN THE TYPE 3 REPEATS

OverviewOverview

Thrombospondins (TSPs) are extracellular regulators of cell-matrix, interactions and cell phenotype. The most highly conserved region of all, TSPs are the calcium-binding type 3 (T3) repeats and the C-terminal, globular domain (CTD). The crystal structure of a cell-binding TSP-1, fragment, spanning three T3 repeats and the CTD, reveals a compact, assembly. The T3 repeats lack secondary structure and are organised around, a core of calcium ions; two DxDxDGxxDxxD motifs per repeat each, encapsulate two calcium ions in a novel arrangement. The CTD forms a, lectin-like beta-sandwich and contains four strictly conserved, calcium-binding sites. Disruption of the hairpin structure of T3 repeats 6, and 7 decreases protein secretion and stability. The availability for cell, attachment of an RGD ... [(full description)]
