THE STRUCTURE OF A TRUNCATED, SOLUBLE VERSION OF SEMICARBAZIDE-SENSITIVE AMINE OXIDASE
OverviewOverview
Semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO) belongs to a ubiquitous, family of copper-containing amine oxidases (CuAOs). SSAO is also known as, vascular adhesion protein-1 (VAP-1) and has been identified as one of the, adhesion molecules involved in the leukocyte-extravasation process. The, structure of a truncated soluble form of human SSAO has been solved and, refined to 2.5 A. As expected, SSAO is a homodimer with a fold typical of, the CuAO family. The topaquinone (TPQ) cofactor and a copper ion, characteristic of CuAOs are present in the active site, with the TPQ in, the active ;off-copper' conformation. The structure reveals that a leucine, residue (Leu469) located adjacent to the active site could function as a, gate controlling its accessibility. An RGD motif is displayed on the, ...
