Abstract
Protein interactions with the collagen triple helix play a critical role in collagen fibril formation, cell adhesion, and signaling. However, structural insight into sequence-specific collagen recognition is limited to an integrin-peptide complex. A GVMGFO motif in fibrillar collagens (O denotes 4-hydroxyproline) binds 3 unrelated proteins: von Willebrand factor (VWF), discoidin domain receptor 2 (DDR2), and the extracellular matrix protein SPARC/osteonectin/BM-40. We report the crystal structure at 3.2 A resolution of human SPARC bound to a triple-helical 33-residue peptide harboring the promiscuous GVMGFO motif. SPARC recognizes the GVMGFO motifs of the middle and trailing collagen chains, burying a total of 720 A(2) of solvent-accessible collagen surface. SPARC binding does not distort the canonical triple helix of the collagen peptide. In contrast, a critical loop in SPARC is substantially remodelled upon collagen binding, creating a deep pocket that accommodates the phenylalanine residue of the trailing collagen chain ("Phe pocket"). This highly restrictive specificity pocket is shared with the collagen-binding integrin I-domains but differs strikingly from the shallow collagen-binding grooves of the platelet receptor glycoprotein VI and microbial adhesins. We speculate that binding of the GVMGFO motif to VWF and DDR2 also results in structural changes and the formation of a Phe pocket.
Figure 1.
Crystal structure of SPARC FS-EC ΔαC bound to a 33-residue collagen peptide (stereoview). The FS and EC domains of SPARC are in green and cyan, respectively. Disulphide bridges are in pale pink, the glycan attached to N99 is in gray, and a calcium ion is shown as a purple sphere. The collagen peptide is shown as a Cα ribbon (leading chain, yellow; middle chain, orange; trailing chain, red). The chain termini, selected helices and the location of the αC deletion are labeled.
Figure 4.
Putative SPARC-binding sites in collagen IV. Shown are partial sequences of human collagen III (SwissProt entry P02461) and collagen IV (α1 chain, P02462; α2 chain, P08572). The SPARC-binding site in collagen III is highlighted; residues that are predicted to be strictly required for SPARC binding (see Prediction of SPARC-Binding Sites in Collagens I–IV) are in red, residues that should be apolar are in orange. The same coloring scheme is used to indicate the 4 putative SPARC-binding sites in collagen IV.

Figure 2 Structure of BM-40 I, C. (A) Two orthogonal views (Kraulis, 1991) related by a rotation of 90° about the vertical axis. The FS domain is in green and the EC domain is in red. The calcium ions bound to the EF hand pair in the EC domain (Ca1 and Ca2) are in yellow; the calcium ion bound at the tip of the E - F loop (Ca3) is in blue. Helices in the EC domain are labelled. Note that five residues around the deletion site (marked by a

Mutated residues are identified by position numbers and their side chains. The three calcium ions are shown as black spheres.
