Abstract
The three-dimensional structure of the first epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like module from human factor IX has been determined in solution using two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (in the absence of calcium and at pH 4.5). The structure was found to resemble closely that of EGF and the homologous transforming growth factor-alpha (TGF-alpha). Residues 60-65 form an antiparallel beta-sheet with residues 68-73. In the C-terminal subdomain a type II beta-turn is found between residues 74 and 77 and a five-residue turn is found between residues 79 and 83. Glu 78 and Leu 84 pair in an antiparallel beta-sheet conformation. In the N-terminal region a loop is found between residues 50 and 55 such that the side chains of both are positioned above the face of the beta-sheet. Residues 56-60 form a turn that leads into the first strand of the beta-sheet. Whereas the global fold closely resembles that of EGF, the N-terminal residues of the module (46-49) do not form a beta-strand but are ill-defined in the structure, probably due to the local flexibility of this region. The structure is discussed with reference to recent site-directed mutagenesis data, which have identified certain conserved residues as ligands for calcium.
