V32D/F57H MUTANT OF MURINE ADIPOCYTE LIPID BINDING PROTEIN
|
Overview
A number of crystallographic studies of the adipocyte lipid-binding, protein have established that the fatty acid-binding site is within an, internalized water-filled cavity. The same studies have also suggested the, existence of a region physically distinct from the fatty acid-binding site, which connects the cavity of the protein with the external solvent, hereafter referred to as the portal. In an effort to examine the portal, region, we have used site-directed mutagenesis to introduce the mutations, V32D/F57H into the murine ALBP cDNA. Mutant protein has been isolated, crystallized, and its stability and binding properties studied by, biochemical methods. As assessed by guanidine-HCl denaturation, the mutant, form exhibited a slight overall destabilization relative to the wild-type, ... [(full description)]
