Abstract
|
 |
|
Factor XIII-cross-linked fragment D (double-D) from human fibrin was
crystallized in the presence of two different peptide ligands and the X-ray
structure determined at 2.3 A. The peptide Gly-Pro-Arg-Pro-amide, which is an
analogue of the knob exposed by the thrombin-catalyzed removal of fibrinopeptide
A, was found to reside in the gamma-chain holes, and the peptide
Gly-His-Arg-Pro-amide, which corresponds to the beta-chain knob, was found in
the homologous beta-chain holes. The structure shows for the first time that the
beta-chain knob does indeed bind to a homologous hole on the beta-chain. The
gamma- and beta-chain holes are structurally very similar, and it is remarkable
they are able to distinguish between these two peptides that differ by a single
amino acid. Additionally, we have found that the beta-chain domain, like its
gamma-chain counterpart, binds calcium.
