Title Unusual structural features in the parallel beta-Helix in pectate lyases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: A new type of domain structure, an all parallel beta class, has recently been observed in two pectate lyases, PelC and PelE. The atomic models have been analyzed to determine whether the new tertiary fold exhibits unusual structural features. RESULTS: The polypeptide backbone exhibits no new types of secondary structural elements. However, novel features occur in the amino acid side chain interactions. The side chain atoms form linear stacks that include asparagine ladders, serine stacks, aliphatic stacks, and ringed-residue stacks. A new type of beta-sandwich between parallel beta-sheets is observed with properties that are more characteristic of antiparallel beta-sheets. CONCLUSION: An analysis of the PelC and PelE structures, belonging to an all parallel beta structural class, reveals novel amino acid side chain interactions, a new type of beta-sandwich and an atypical amino acid composition of parallel beta-sheets. The findings are relevant to three-dimensional structural predictions.

Fig. 1. Schematics of PelC and PelE. Ribbon iagram of (a) PelC and (b) PelE. Arrows represent ~-structure, and coils represent e~-helices. Each of the three parallel sheets is depicted in a different color, PB2 is ingree, PB1 in yelow and PB3 in red. (c) The superposition of the core regions f PelE on PelC. Loops extending out from the core region are xcluded. Th PeIC C~ chain trace is in yellow and the PelE Cc~ chain trace is in blue.
