'''VISUALIZING AN UNSTABLE COILED COIL: THE CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF AN N-TERMINAL SEGMENT OF THE SCALLOP MYOSIN ROD'''<br />


==Overview==
==VISUALIZING AN UNSTABLE COILED COIL: THE CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF AN N-TERMINAL SEGMENT OF THE SCALLOP MYOSIN ROD==
Alpha-helical coiled coils in muscle exemplify simplicity and economy of, protein design: small variations in sequence lead to remarkable diversity, in cellular functions. Myosin II is the key protein in muscle contraction, and the molecule's two-chain alpha-helical coiled-coil rod region--towards, the carboxy terminus of the heavy chain--has unusual structural and, dynamic features. The amino-terminal subfragment-2 (S2) domains of the, rods can swing out from the thick filament backbone at a hinge in the, coiled coil, allowing the two myosin 'heads' and their motor domains to, interact with actin and generate tension. Most of the S2 rod appears to be, a flexible coiled coil, but studies suggest that the structure at the, N-terminal region is unstable, and unwinding or bending of the, alpha-helices near the head-rod junction seems necessary for many of, myosin's functional properties. Here we show the physical basis of a, particularly weak coiled-coil segment by determining the 2.5-A-resolution, crystal structure of a leucine-zipper-stabilized fragment of the scallop, striated-muscle myosin rod adjacent to the head-rod junction. The, N-terminal 14 residues are poorly ordered; the rest of the S2 segment, forms a flexible coiled coil with poorly packed core residues. The unusual, absence of interhelical salt bridges here exposes apolar core atoms to, solvent.
