Ultrahigh resolution Crystal Structure of syntenin PDZ2Ultrahigh resolution Crystal Structure of syntenin PDZ2
Structural highlights
Function[SDCB1_HUMAN] Seems to function as an adapter protein. In adherens junctions may function to couple syndecans to cytoskeletal proteins or signaling components. Seems to couple transcription factor SOX4 to the IL-5 receptor (IL5RA). May also play a role in vesicular trafficking. Seems to be required for the targeting of TGFA to the cell surface in the early secretory pathway.[1] [2] [3] Evolutionary Conservation![]() Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedThe crystal structure of the second PDZ domain of the scaffolding protein syntenin was solved using data extending to 0.73 A resolution. The crystallographic model, including the hydrogen atoms and the anisotropic displacement parameters, was refined to a conventional R-factor of 7.5% and Rfree of 8.7%, making it the most precise crystallographic model of a protein molecule to date. The model reveals discrete disorder in several places in the molecule, and significant plasticity of the peptide bond, with some omega angles deviating by nearly 20 degrees from planarity. Most hydrogen atoms are easily identifiable in the electron density and weak hydrogen bonds of the C-H...O type are clearly visible between the beta-strands. The study sets a new standard for high-resolution protein crystallography.
