Structural Requirements for Polymeric Immunoglobulin Assembly and Association with
Both IgM and IgA exist as polymeric immunoglobulins. IgM is assembled into pentamers with J chain and hexamers lacking J chain. In contrast, polymeric IgA exists mostly as dimers with J chain. Both IgM and IgA possess an 18-amino acid extension of the C terminus (the tail-piece (tp)) that participates in polymerization through a penultimate cysteine residue. The IgM (mtp) and IgA (atp) tail-pie...
متن کاملStructural basis for spectrin recognition by ankyrin.
Maintenance of membrane integrity and organization in the metazoan cell is accomplished through intracellular tethering of membrane proteins to an extensive, flexible protein network. Spectrin, the principal component of this network, is anchored to membrane proteins through the adaptor protein ankyrin. To elucidate the atomic basis for this interaction, we determined a crystal structure of hum...
متن کاملGraph Centrality Analysis of Structural Ankyrin Repeats
In recent studies it has been shown that graph representation of protein structures is capable of capturing the 3-dimensional fold of the protein very well, thus providing a computationally efficient approach for protein structure analysis. Centrality measures are generally used to identify the relative importance of a node in the network. Here we demonstrate a novel application of centrality a...
متن کاملStructural Requirements for Pairing
The class II antigens ofthe human MHC are cell surface heterodimers composed of noncovalently linked 35-kD a chains and 29-kD (3 chains . These antigens are present on macrophages, B lymphocytes, and other APC (for review, see reference 1). Class II antigens are capable of binding immunogenic peptides and thereby serve as ligand for the TCR (2, 3) . Recent experiments have demonstrated that cla...
