Phospholipid binding and transfer by the nonspecific lipid-transfer protein (sterol carrier protein 2). A kinetic model.
The nonspecific lipid-transfer protein (nsL-TP) from bovine liver was studied by measuring the binding and transfer of the fluorescent phospholipid 1-palmitoyl-2-[6-(1-pyrenyl)-hexanoyl]-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (PamPryGroPCho). A kinetic model is presented involving three steps: (a) interaction of nsL-TP with a membrane surface; (b) equilibration of PamPyrGroPCho monomers between the membra...
متن کاملComputational study of ligand binding in lipid transfer proteins: Structures, interfaces, and free energies of protein-lipid complexes
Plant nonspecific lipid transfer proteins (nsLTPs) bind a wide variety of lipids, which allows them to perform disparate functions. Recent reports on their multifunctionality in plant growth processes have posed new questions on the versatile binding abilities of these proteins. The lack of binding specificity has been customarily explained in qualitative terms on the basis of a supposed struct...
متن کاملStructural basis of non-specific lipid binding in maize lipid-transfer protein complexes revealed by high-resolution X-ray crystallography.
Non-specific lipid-transfer proteins (nsLTPs) are involved in the movement of phospholipids, glycolipids, fatty acids, and steroids between membranes. Several structures of plant nsLTPs have been determined both by X-ray crystallography and nuclear magnetic resonance. However, the detailed structural basis of the non-specific binding of hydrophobic ligands by nsLTPs is still poorly understood. ...
متن کاملCharacterization and structural analyses of nonspecific lipid transfer protein 1 from mung bean.
Plant nonspecific lipid transfer proteins (nsLTPs) are thermal stable proteins that are capable of transferring lipid molecules between bilayers in vitro. This family of proteins, abundant in plants, is proposed to be involved in defense, pollination, and germination; the in vivo biological function remains, however, elusive. Here we report the purification and sequencing of an nsLTP1 from mung...
متن کاملA lipid transfer protein that transfers lipid
Very few lipid transfer proteins (LTPs) have been caught in the act of transferring lipids in vivo from a donor membrane to an acceptor membrane. Now, two studies (Halter, D., S. Neumann, S.M. van Dijk, J. Wolthoorn, A.M. de Maziere, O.V. Vieira, P. Mattjus, J. Klumperman, G. van Meer, and H. Sprong. 2007. J. Cell Biol. 179:101-115; D'Angelo, G., E. Polishchuk, G.D. Tullio, M. Santoro, A.D. Cam...
