==Overview==
The determination of the NMR structure of the sterol carrier protein-2, (SCP2), analysis of backbone (15)N spin relaxation parameters and NMR, studies of nitroxide spin-labeled substrate binding are presented as a new, basis for investigations of the mode of action of SCP2. The SCP2 fold is, formed by a five-stranded beta-sheet and four alpha-helices. Fatty acid, binding to a hydrophobic surface area formed by amino acid residues of the, first and third helices, and the beta-sheet, which are all located in the, polypeptide segment 8-102, was identified with the use of the spin-labeled, substrate 16-doxylstearic acid. In the free protein, the lipid-binding, site is covered by the C-terminal segment 105-123, suggesting that this, polypeptide segment, which carries the peroxisomal targeting signal, (PTS1), might be involved in the regulation of ligand binding.
