Abstract
|
 |
|
Thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1) contains three type 1 repeats (TSRs), which mediate
cell attachment, glycosaminoglycan binding, inhibition of angiogenesis,
activation of TGFbeta, and inhibition of matrix metalloproteinases. The crystal
structure of the TSRs reported in this article reveals a novel, antiparallel,
three-stranded fold that consists of alternating stacked layers of tryptophan
and arginine residues from respective strands, capped by disulfide bonds on each
end. The front face of the TSR contains a right-handed spiral, positively
charged groove that might be the "recognition" face, mediating interactions with
various ligands. This is the first high-resolution crystal structure of a TSR
domain that provides a prototypic architecture for structural and functional
exploration of the diverse members of the TSR superfamily.
