Structural highlights
Evolutionary ConservationCheck, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf. Publication Abstract from PubMedStructural evidence is presented for a 'Ca(2+)-bridging' mechanism, proposed for Ca(2+)-binding interfacial membrane proteins such as annexins, protein kinase C, and certain coagulation proteins. Crystal structures of Ca(2+)-annexin V complexes with phospholipid polar heads provide molecular details of 'Ca(2+)-bridges' as key features in the membrane attachment exhibited by these proteins. Distinct binding sites for phospholipid head groups are observed, including a novel, double-Ca2+ recognition site for phosphoserine that may serve as a phosphatidylserine receptor site in vivo.
