Coagulation factor XII protease domain crystal structure
BACKGROUND Coagulation factor XII is a serine protease that is important for kinin generation and blood coagulation, cleaving the substrates plasma kallikrein and FXI. OBJECTIVE To investigate FXII zymogen activation and substrate recognition by determining the crystal structure of the FXII protease domain. METHODS AND RESULTS A series of recombinant FXII protease constructs were characteri...
متن کاملCrystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of coagulation factor IX-binding protein from habu snake venom at pH 6.5 and 4.6.
Coagulation factor IX-binding protein isolated from Trimeresurus flavoviridis (IX-bp) is a C-type lectin-like protein. It is an anticoagulant protein consisting of homologous subunits A and B. The subunits both contain a Ca2+-binding site with differing affinity (Kd values of 14 and 130 microM at pH 7.5). These binding characteristics are pH-dependent; under acidic conditions, the affinity of t...
متن کاملCoagulation Factor IX for Hemophilia B Therapy
Factor IX is a zymogen enzyme of the blood coagulation cascade. Inherited absence or deficit of the IX functional factor causes bleeding disorder hemophilia B, which requires constant protein replacement therapy. Reviewed herein are the current state in the manufacturing of FIX, improved variants of the recombinant protein for therapy, transgenic organisms for obtaining FIX, and the advances in...
متن کاملCrystal structure of the calcium-stabilized human factor IX Gla domain bound to a conformation-specific anti-factor IX antibody.
The binding of Factor IX to membranes during blood coagulation is mediated by the N-terminal gamma-carboxyglutamic acid-rich (Gla) domain, a membrane-anchoring domain found on vitamin K-dependent blood coagulation and regulatory proteins. Conformation-specific anti-Factor IX antibodies are directed at the calcium-stabilized Gla domain and interfere with Factor IX-membrane interaction. One such ...
متن کاملCrystal structure of trbp111: a structure-specific tRNA-binding protein.
Trbp111 is a 111 amino acid Aquifex aeolicus structure-specific tRNA-binding protein that has homologous counterparts distributed throughout evolution. A dimer is the functional unit for binding a single tRNA. Here we report the 3D structures of the A.aeolicus protein and its Escherichia coli homolog at resolutions of 2.50 and 1.87 A, respectively. The structure shows a symmetrical dimer of two...
