1992年7月23日收到的修订版Mandarin pt摘要:通过1H NMR光谱法在水和二甲基亚砜(DMSO)溶液中研究了纤连蛋白C-末端链间二硫键连接的七肽二聚体(Val-Asn-Cys-Pro-Ile-Glu-Cys)2。在DMSO中的质子Overhauser实验明确地表明,两条纤连蛋白多肽链以反平行的方式首尾相连(N-末端到C-末端)。发现肽的结构被延伸。从~ 1H NMR的质子间距离和角度的限制,优选的平均(时间平均)的构象在H_2O和DMSO推导出使用距离几何和分子力学算法。这两种构象虽然明显不同,但都表现出结构平行的共同特征。纤连蛋白是一种分子量约为440 000 M的双链糖蛋白,存在于血浆、细胞表面、组织内结缔组织基质、血管和基底膜中。(McDonagh,1985; Vartio & Vahari,1983; Mosher,1989; Ruoslahti,1988)。两条链α和β是高度同源的,并且各自由重复的球状模块的串联阵列组成,一般称为I型、II型和III型结构域(Skorstengaard等人,1986年)。纤连蛋白是一种粘附性多功能蛋白质,其识别广泛的底物,包括纤维蛋白、肝素、明胶、胶原和细胞表面。因此,它参与了多种细胞
Revised Manuscript Received July 23, 1992 abstract: The fibronectin C-terminal interchain disulfide-linked heptapeptide dimer (Val-Asn-Cys-Pro-Ile-Glu-Cys) 2 has been investigated via'H NMR spectroscopy in both water and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solutions. Proton Overhauser experiments in DMSO indicateunambiguously that thetwo fibronectin polypeptide chains are linked head-to-tail (N-terminus to C-terminus), in an antiparallel fashion. It is found that the structure of the peptide is extended. From the ‘H NMR interproton distanceand angle constraints, the preferred mean (time-averaged) conformations in both H2O and DMSO were derived using distance geometry and molecular mechanics algorithms. The two conformations, althoughsignificantly dissimilar, exhibit the common feature of a structurally parallel (as opposed to chemically antiparallel) fibronectin a/0 chain array.Fibronectin is a two-chain glycoprotein of~ 440 000 M, found in blood plasma, cell surfaces, intratissue connective matrix, blood vessels, andbasement membranes (McDonagh, 1985; Vartio & Vahari, 1983; Mosher, 1989; Ruoslahti, 1988). The two chains, a and 0, are highly homologousand are each composed of a tandem array of repeated globular modules, generically known as type I, type II, and type III domains (Skorstengaard et al., 1986). Fibronectin is an adhesive multifunctional protein, which recognizes a wide spectrum of substrates, including fibrin, heparin, gelatin, collagen, and cell surfaces. As such, it is involved in a variety of cellular
