Solution structure of BetaCore, A Designed Water Soluble Four-Stranded Antiparallel b-sheet Protein
OverviewOverview
BetaCore is a designed approximately 50-residue protein in which two, BPTI-derived core modules, CM I and CM II, are connected by a 22-atom, cross-link. At low temperature and pH 3, homo- and heteronuclear NMR data, report a dominant folded ('f') conformation with well-dispersed chemical, shifts, i, i+1 periodicity, numerous long-range NOEs, and slowed amide, hydrogen isotope exchange patterns that is a four-stranded antiparallel, beta-sheet with nonsymmetrical and specific association of CM I and CM II., BetaCore 'f' conformations undergo reversible, global, moderately, cooperative, non-two-state thermal transitions to an equilibrium ensemble, of unfolded 'u' conformations. There is a significant energy barrier, between 'f' and 'u' conformations. This is the first designed, four-stranded antiparallel beta-sheet that folds in water.
