We have developed an experimental approach to map the complete binding surface of any crystalline macromolecule that is fast and flexible. Crystals of the target protein are transferred into organic solvents and the crystal structures are determined at high (about 2Å) resolution. The sites where the solvent molecules bind to the protein are thus identified directly. Different solvents serve as probes for different organic functional groups; thus, benzene is a probe for where aromatic groups like to bind, dimethyl formamide is a probe for peptide binding sites, and so forth. A series of about six such experiments suffices to locate the major binding regions on the protein surface unambiguously. These different sites can then be targeted with “Hydra‐headed” inhibitors that interact simultaneously with more that one site, thereby providing specificity for the desired target. We have used this method to map the complete binding surface of elastase, and find that three regions, including the active site cleft, are generally “sticky” and can make interactions with almost any functional group. Analyses of these binding sites on elastase and other proteins suggests that what makes a binding site is amphipathicity and the ease with which water can be displaced. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
