C-TERMINAL DOMAIN (HAEMOPEXIN-LIKE DOMAIN) OF HUMAN MATRIX METALLOPROTEINASE-2
Overview
In common with most other matrix metalloproteinases, gelatinase A has a, non-catalytic C-terminal domain that displays sequence homology to, haemopexin. Crystals of this domain were used by molecular replacement to, solve its molecular structure at 2.6 A resolution, which was refined to an, R value of 17.9%. This structure has a disc-like shape, with the chain, folded into a beta-propeller structure that has pseudo four-fold symmetry., Although the topology and the side-chain arrangement are very similar to, the equivalent domain of fibroblast collagenase, significant differences, in surface charge and contouring are observable on 1 side of the, gelatinase A disc. This difference might be a factor in allowing the, gelatinase A C-terminal domain to bind to natural inhibitor TIMP-2.
Disease
Known diseases associated with this structure: Osteolysis, idiopathic, Saudi type OMIM:[120360], Winchester syndrome OMIM:[120360]
