  ABSTRACT  
 
The crystal structure of the kringle 2 domain of tissue plasminogen activator was determined and refined at a resolution of 2.43 A. The overall fold of the molecule is similar to that of prothrombin kringle 1 and plasminogen kringle 4; however, there are differences in the lysine binding pocket, and two looping regions, which include insertions in kringle 2, take on very different conformations. Based on a comparison of the overall structural homology between kringle 2 and kringle 4, a new sequence alignment for kringle domains is proposed that results in a division of kringle domains into two groups, consistent with their proposed evolutionary relation. The crystal structure shows a strong interaction between a lysine residue of one molecule and the lysine/fibrin binding pocket of a noncrystallographically related neighbor. This interaction represents a good model of a bound protein ligand and is the first such ligand that has been observed in a kringle binding pocket. The structure shows an intricate network of interactions both among the binding pocket residues and between binding pocket residues and the lysine ligand. A lysine side chain is identified as the positively charged group positioned to interact with the carboxylate of lysine and lysine analogue ligands. In addition, a chloride ion is located in the kringle-kringle interface and contributes to the observed interaction between kringle molecules.

The most recent references are shown first. Citation data come partly from CiteXplore and partly from an automated harvesting procedure. Note that this is likely to be only a partial list as not all journals are covered by either method. However, we are continually building up the citation data so more and more references will be included with time. Where a reference describes a PDB structure, the PDB code is shown on the right.
