Intermediates control domain swapping during folding of p13suc1.
The 13-kDa protein p13(suc1) has two folded states, a monomer and a structurally similar domain-swapped dimer formed by exchange of a beta-strand. The refolding reaction of p13(suc1) is multiphasic, and in this paper we analyze the kinetics as a function of denaturant and protein concentration and compare the behavior of wild type and a set of mutants previously designed with dimerization prope...
متن کاملProtein folding and three-dimensional domain swapping: a strained relationship?
Many proteins function as multimeric assemblies into which the folded individual promoters organize as higher order structures. An oligomerization mechanism that appears to impose the coordination of events during folding and oligomer assembly is three-dimensional domain swapping. Recent studies have focused on revealing the structural basis of domain swapping and a possible role for domain swa...
متن کاملThree-Dimensional Domain Swapping Changes the Folding Mechanism of the Forkhead Domain of FoxP1.
The forkhead family of transcription factors (Fox) controls gene transcription during key processes such as regulation of metabolism, embryogenesis, and immunity. Structurally, Fox proteins feature a conserved DNA-binding domain known as forkhead. Interestingly, solved forkhead structures of members from the P subfamily (FoxP) show that they can oligomerize by three-dimensional domain swapping,...
متن کاملStructural Characteristics of Stable Folding Intermediates of Yeast Iso-1-Cytochrome-c
Cytochrome-c (cyt-c) is an electron transport protein, and it is present throughout the evolution. More than 280 sequences have been reported in the protein sequence database (www.uniprot.org). Though sequentially diverse, cyt-c has essentially retained its tertiary structure or fold. Thus a vast data set of varied sequences with retention of similar structure and fun...
متن کاملCharacterizing protein folding intermediates.
To determine the pathway by which a protein folds up, it is necessary to characterize the structures of folding intermediates and also to place these intermediates in the correct order on the kinetic pathway of folding. Noncovalent folding reactions are fast: typically they occur in seconds or less for small single-domain proteins. On the other hand, hours are required to obtain detailed struct...
