Abstract
|
 |
|
Neutrophil-activating peptide-2 (NAP-2) is a 70-residue carboxyl-terminal
fragment of platelet basic protein, which is found in the alpha-granules of
human platelets. NAP-2, which belongs to the CXC family of chemokines that
includes interleukin-8 and platelet factor 4, binds to the interleukin-8 type II
receptor and induces a rise in cytosolic calcium, chemotaxis of neutrophils, and
exocytosis. Crystals of recombinant NAP-2 in which the single methionine at
position 6 was replaced by leucine to facilitate expression belong to space
group P1 (unit cell parameters a = 40.8, b = 43.8, and c = 44.7 A and alpha =
98.4 degrees, beta = 120.3 degrees, and gamma = 92.8 degrees), with 4 molecules
of NAP-2 (Mr = 7600) in the asymmetric unit. The molecular replacement solution
calculated with bovine platelet factor 4 as the starting model was refined using
rigid body refinement, manual fitting in solvent-leveled electron density maps,
simulated annealing, and restrained least squares to an R-factor of 0.188 for 2
sigma data between 7.0- and 1.9-A resolution. The final refined crystal
structure includes 265 solvent molecules. The overall tertiary structure, which
is similar to that of platelet factor 4 and interleukin-8, includes an extended
amino-terminal loop, three strands of antiparallel beta-sheet arranged in a
Greek key fold, and one alpha-helix at the carboxyl terminus. The Glu-Leu-Arg
sequence that is critical for receptor binding is fully defined by electron
density and exhibits multiple conformations.
