MELANIN PROTEIN INTERACTION: X-RAY STRUCTURE OF THE COMPLEX OF MARE LACTOFERRIN WITH MELANIN MONOMERSMELANIN PROTEIN INTERACTION: X-RAY STRUCTURE OF THE COMPLEX OF MARE LACTOFERRIN WITH MELANIN MONOMERS
Structural highlights
1f9b is a 1 chain structure with sequence from Equus caballus. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
TRFL_HORSE Transferrins are iron binding transport proteins which can bind two Fe(3+) ions in association with the binding of an anion, usually bicarbonate. The lactotransferrin transferrin-like domain 1 functions as a serine protease of the peptidase S60 family that cuts arginine rich regions. This function contributes to the antimicrobial activity (By similarity).
