'''Solution Structure of POIA1'''<br />


==Overview==
==Overview==
Solution structure of POIA1 (Pleurotus ostreatus proteinase A inhibitor, 1), which functions as an intramolecular chaperone and as an inhibitor to, subtilisin, was determined. By making use of the fact that POIA1 is the, only structured protein that shows homology to the propeptide of, subtilisin, which is unstructured by itself, foldability of this protein, was elucidated. It became clear that the evolutionarily conserved residues, play two important roles, one for the maintenance of its own structure, and the other for the interaction with subtilisin. Structural softness and, mutational tolerance contained in the POIA1 structure makes it an ideal, material for designing a foldable protein.
