FunctionNOE1_MOUSE May play an important role in regulating the production of neural crest cells by the neural tube. Publication Abstract from PubMedOlfactomedin-1 (Olfm1; also known as noelin, pancortin) is a member of the olfactomedin domain-containing superfamily and a highly expressed neuronal glycoprotein important for nervous system development. It binds a number of secreted proteins and cell-surface bound receptors to induce cell signaling processes. Using a combined approach of X-ray crystallography, solution scattering, analytical ultracentrifugation and electron microscopy we determine that full-length Olfm1 forms disulfide-linked tetramers with a distinctive V-shaped architecture. The base of the V is formed by two disulfide-linked dimeric N-terminal domains. Each of the two V-legs consists of a parallel dimeric disulfide-linked coiled coil with at the tips a C-terminal beta-propeller dimer. This agrees with our crystal structure of a C-terminal coiled-coil segment and beta-propeller combination (Olfm1coil-Olf), which reveals a disulfide-linked dimeric arrangement with the beta-propeller top faces in an outward exposed orientation. Similar to its family member myocilin, Olfm1 is stabilized by calcium. The dimer-of-dimers architecture suggests a role for Olfm1 in clustering receptors to regulate signaling and informs on the conformation of several other olfactomedin domain family members. Olfactomedin-1 has a V-shaped disulfide-linked tetrameric structure.,Pronker MF, Bos TG, Sharp TH, Thies-Weesie DM, Janssen BJ J Biol Chem. 2015 Apr 21. pii: jbc.M115.653485.
