    Structure of staphylococcal alpha-hemolysin, a heptameric transmembrane pore (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-12-13
    Description: The structure of the Staphylococcus aureus alpha-hemolysin pore has been determined to 1.9 A resolution. Contained within the mushroom-shaped homo-oligomeric heptamer is a solvent-filled channel, 100 A in length, that runs along the sevenfold axis and ranges from 14 A to 46 A in diameter. The lytic, transmembrane domain comprises the lower half of a 14-strand antiparallel beta barrel, to which each protomer contributes two beta strands, each 65 A long. The interior of the beta barrel is primarily hydrophilic, and the exterior has a hydrophobic belt 28 A wide. The structure proves the heptameric subunit stoichiometry of the alpha-hemolysin oligomer, shows that a glycine-rich and solvent-exposed region of a water-soluble protein can self-assemble to form a transmembrane pore of defined structure, and provides insight into the principles of membrane interaction and transport activity of beta barrel pore-forming toxins.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Song, L -- Hobaugh, M R -- Shustak, C -- Cheley, S -- Bayley, H -- Gouaux, J E -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Dec 13;274(5294):1859-66.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, University of Chicago, 920 East 58 Street, Chicago, IL 60637, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8943190" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Structural basis of ligand discrimination by two related RNA aptamers resolved by NMR spectroscopy (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-05-31
    Description: In a previous study, an RNA aptamer for the specific recognition of arginine was evolved from a parent sequence that bound citrulline specifically. The two RNAs differ at only 3 positions out of 44. The solution structures of the two aptamers complexed to their cognate amino acids have now been determined by two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Both aptamers contain two asymmetrical internal loops that are not well ordered in the free RNA but that fold into a compact structure upon ligand binding. Those nucleotides common to both RNAs include a conserved cluster of purine residues, three of which form an uneven plane containing a G:G pair, and two other residues nearly perpendicular to that surface. Two of the three variant nucleotides are stacked on the cluster of purines and form a triple contact to the amino acid side chain, whereas the edge of the third variant nucleotide is capping the binding pocket.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yang, Y -- Kochoyan, M -- Burgstaller, P -- Westhof, E -- Famulok, M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 May 31;272(5266):1343-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Centre de Biochimie Structurale (CBS), Unite Mixte de Recherche, CNRS 9955, Montpellier, France.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8650546" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Crystal structure of a group I ribozyme domain: principles of RNA packing (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-09-20
    Description: Group I self-splicing introns catalyze their own excision from precursor RNAs by way of a two-step transesterification reaction. The catalytic core of these ribozymes is formed by two structural domains. The 2.8-angstrom crystal structure of one of these, the P4-P6 domain of the Tetrahymena thermophila intron, is described. In the 160-nucleotide domain, a sharp bend allows stacked helices of the conserved core to pack alongside helices of an adjacent region. Two specific long-range interactions clamp the two halves of the domain together: a two-Mg2+-coordinated adenosine-rich corkscrew plugs into the minor groove of a helix, and a GAAA hairpin loop binds to a conserved 11-nucleotide internal loop. Metal- and ribose-mediated backbone contacts further stabilize the close side-by-side helical packing. The structure indicates the extent of RNA packing required for the function of large ribozymes, the spliceosome, and the ribosome.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cate, J H -- Gooding, A R -- Podell, E -- Zhou, K -- Golden, B L -- Kundrot, C E -- Cech, T R -- Doudna, J A -- 5T32GM08283-07/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM22778-21/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Sep 20;273(5282):1678-85.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06520, USA. doudna@csb.yale.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8781224" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Structure of the FKBP12-rapamycin complex interacting with the binding domain of human FRAP (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-07-12
    Description: Rapamycin, a potent immunosuppressive agent, binds two proteins: the FK506-binding protein (FKBP12) and the FKBP-rapamycin-associated protein (FRAP). A crystal structure of the ternary complex of human FKBP12, rapamycin, and the FKBP12-rapamycin-binding (FRB) domain of human FRAP at a resolution of 2.7 angstroms revealed the two proteins bound together as a result of the ability of rapamycin to occupy two different hydrophobic binding pockets simultaneously. The structure shows extensive interactions between rapamycin and both proteins, but fewer interactions between the proteins. The structure of the FRB domain of FRAP clarifies both rapamycin-independent and -dependent effects observed for mutants of FRAP and its homologs in the family of proteins related to the ataxia-telangiectasia mutant gene product, and it illustrates how a small cell-permeable molecule can mediate protein dimerization.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Choi, J -- Chen, J -- Schreiber, S L -- Clardy, J -- CA59021/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- GM38625/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jul 12;273(5272):239-42.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, Baker Laboratory, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853-1301, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8662507" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A mechanism of drug action revealed by structural studies of enoyl reductase (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-12-20
    Description: Enoyl reductase (ENR), an enzyme involved in fatty acid biosynthesis, is the target for antibacterial diazaborines and the front-line antituberculosis drug isoniazid. Analysis of the structures of complexes of Escherichia coli ENR with nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and either thienodiazaborine or benzodiazaborine revealed the formation of a covalent bond between the 2' hydroxyl of the nicotinamide ribose and a boron atom in the drugs to generate a tight, noncovalently bound bisubstrate analog. This analysis has implications for the structure-based design of inhibitors of ENR, and similarities to other oxidoreductases suggest that mimicking this molecular linkage may have generic applications in other areas of medicinal chemistry.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Baldock, C -- Rafferty, J B -- Sedelnikova, S E -- Baker, P J -- Stuitje, A R -- Slabas, A R -- Hawkes, T R -- Rice, D W -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Dec 20;274(5295):2107-10.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Krebs Institute for Biomolecular Research, Department of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology, University of Sheffield, Sheffield S10 2TN, UK.

    Molecular orientation and two-component nature of the crystalline fraction of spider dragline silk (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-01-05
    Description: The molecular origin of the exceptional mechanical properties of spider silk is unclear. This paper presents solid-state 2H nuclear magnetic resonance data from unoriented, oriented, and supercontracted fibers, indicating that the crystalline fraction of dragline silk consists of two types of alanine-rich regions, one that is highly oriented and one that is poorly oriented and less densely packed. A new model for the molecular-level structure of individual silk molecules and their arrangement in the fibers is proposed. These data suggest that it will be necessary to control the secondary structure of individual polymer molecules in order to obtain optimum properties in bio-inspired polymers.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Simmons, A H -- Michal, C A -- Jelinski, L W -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jan 5;271(5245):84-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Center for Advanced Technology in Biotechnology, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8539605" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Structure of the p53 tumor suppressor bound to the ankyrin and SH3 domains of 53BP2 (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-11-08
    Description: Mutations in the p53 tumor suppressor are among the most frequently observed genetic alterations in human cancer and map to the 200-amino acid core domain of the protein. The core domain contains the sequence-specific DNA binding activity and the in vitro 53BP2 protein binding activity of p53. The crystal structure of the p53 core domain bound to the 53BP2 protein, which contains an SH3 (Src homology 3) domain and four ankyrin repeats, revealed that (i) the SH3 domain binds the L3 loop of p53 in a manner distinct from that of previously characterized SH3-polyproline peptide complexes, and (ii) an ankyrin repeat, which forms an L-shaped structure consisting of a beta hairpin and two alpha helices, binds the L2 loop of p53. The structure of the complex shows that the 53BP2 binding site on the p53 core domain consists of evolutionarily conserved regions that are frequently mutated in cancer and that it overlaps the site of DNA binding. The six most frequently observed p53 mutations disrupt 53BP2 binding in vitro. The structure provides evidence that the 53BP2-p53 complex forms in vivo and may have a critical role in the p53 pathway of tumor suppression.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gorina, S -- Pavletich, N P -- CA65698/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Nov 8;274(5289):1001-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Cellular Biochemistry and Biophysics Program, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, New York, NY 10021, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8875926" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

Nonsense mutations in this gene (PKD2) segregated with the disease in three PKD2 families. The predicted 968-amino acid sequence of the PKD2 gene product has six transmembrane spans with intracellular amino- and carboxyl-termini. The PKD2 protein has amino acid similarity with PKD1, the Caenorhabditis elegans homolog of PKD1, and the family of voltage-activated calcium (and sodium) channels, and it contains a potential calcium-binding domain.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Mochizuki, T -- Wu, G -- Hayashi, T -- Xenophontos, S L -- Veldhuisen, B -- Saris, J J -- Reynolds, D M -- Cai, Y -- Gabow, P A -- Pierides, A -- Kimberling, W J -- Breuning, M H -- Deltas, C C -- Peters, D J -- Somlo, S -- DK02015/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- DK48383/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 May 31;272(5266):1339-42.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Renal Division, Department of Medicine and Molecular Genetics, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Bronx, NY 10461, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8650545" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    The whole structure of the 13-subunit oxidized cytochrome c oxidase at 2.8 A (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-05-24
    Description: The crystal structure of bovine heart cytochrome c oxidase at 2.8 A resolution with an R value of 19.9 percent reveals 13 subunits, each different from the other, five phosphatidyl ethanolamines, three phosphatidyl glycerols and two cholates, two hemes A, and three copper, one magnesium, and one zinc. Of 3606 amino acid residues in the dimer, 3560 have been converged to a reasonable structure by refinement. A hydrogen-bonded system, including a propionate of a heme A (heme a), part of peptide backbone, and an imidazole ligand of CuA, could provide an electron transfer pathway between CuA and heme a. Two possible proton pathways for pumping, each spanning from the matrix to the cytosolic surfaces, were identified, including hydrogen bonds, internal cavities likely to contain water molecules, and structures that could form hydrogen bonds with small possible conformational change of amino acid side chains. Possible channels for chemical protons to produce H2O, for removing the produced water, and for O2, respectively, were identified.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Tsukihara, T -- Aoyama, H -- Yamashita, E -- Tomizaki, T -- Yamaguchi, H -- Shinzawa-Itoh, K -- Nakashima, R -- Yaono, R -- Yoshikawa, S -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 May 24;272(5265):1136-44.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute for Protein Research, Osaka University, Suita, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8638158" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Crystal structure of DMSO reductase: redox-linked changes in molybdopterin coordination (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-06-14
    Description: The molybdoenzyme dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) reductase contributes to the release of dimethylsulfide, a compound that has been implicated in cloud nucleation and global climate regulation. The crystal structure of DMSO reductase from Rhodobacter sphaeroides reveals a monooxo molybdenum cofactor containing two molybdopterin guanine dinucleotides that asymmetrically coordinate the molybdenum through their dithiolene groups. One of the pterins exhibits different coordination modes to the molybdenum between the oxidized and reduced states, whereas the side chain oxygen of Ser147 coordinates the metal in both states. The change in pterin coordination between the Mo(VI) and Mo(IV) forms suggests a mechanism for substrate binding and reduction by this enzyme. Sequence comparisons of DMSO reductase with a family of bacterial oxotransferases containing molybdopterin guanine dinucleotide indicate a similar polypeptide fold and active site with two molybdopterins within this family.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Schindelin, H -- Kisker, C -- Hilton, J -- Rajagopalan, K V -- Rees, D C -- GM00091/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM50775/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jun 14;272(5268):1615-21.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena 91125, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8658134" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Crystal structure of the lactose operon repressor and its complexes with DNA and inducer (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-03-01
    Description: The lac operon of Escherichia coli is the paradigm for gene regulation. Its key component is the lac repressor, a product of the lacI gene. The three-dimensional structures of the intact lac repressor, the lac repressor bound to the gratuitous inducer isopropyl-beta-D-1-thiogalactoside (IPTG) and the lac repressor complexed with a 21-base pair symmetric operator DNA have been determined. These three structures show the conformation of the molecule in both the induced and repressed states and provide a framework for understanding a wealth of biochemical and genetic information. The DNA sequence of the lac operon has three lac repressor recognition sites in a stretch of 500 base pairs. The crystallographic structure of the complex with DNA suggests that the tetrameric repressor functions synergistically with catabolite gene activator protein (CAP) and participates in the quaternary formation of repression loops in which one tetrameric repressor interacts simultaneously with two sites on the genomic DNA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lewis, M -- Chang, G -- Horton, N C -- Kercher, M A -- Pace, H C -- Schumacher, M A -- Brennan, R G -- Lu, P -- 2-T32-GM082745/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM44617/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- P41-RR06017/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Mar 1;271(5253):1247-54.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Johnson Research Foundation, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia 19104, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8638105" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Capturing the structure of a catalytic RNA intermediate: the hammerhead ribozyme (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-12-20
    Description: The crystal structure of an unmodified hammerhead RNA in the absence of divalent metal ions has been solved, and it was shown that this ribozyme can cleave itself in the crystal when divalent metal ions are added. This biologically active RNA fold is the same as that found previously for two modified hammerhead ribozymes. Addition of divalent cations at low pH makes it possible to capture the uncleaved RNA in metal-bound form. A conformational intermediate, having an additional Mg(II) bound to the cleavage-site phosphate, was captured by freeze-trapping the RNA at an active pH prior to cleavage. The most significant conformational changes were limited to the active site of the ribozyme, and the changed conformation requires only small additional movements to reach a proposed transition-state.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Scott, W G -- Murray, J B -- Arnold, J R -- Stoddard, B L -- Klug, A -- GM-49857/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Dec 20;274(5295):2065-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Hills Road, Cambridge CB2 2QH, England.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8953035" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Structural basis of light harvesting by carotenoids: peridinin-chlorophyll-protein from Amphidinium carterae (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-06-21
    Description: Peridinin-chlorophyll-protein, a water-soluble light-harvesting complex that has a blue-green absorbing carotenoid as its main pigment, is present in most photosynthetic dinoflagellates. Its high-resolution (2.0 angstrom) x-ray structure reveals a noncrystallographic trimer in which each polypeptide contains an unusual jellyroll fold of the alpha-helical amino- and carboxyl-terminal domains. These domains constitute a scaffold with pseudo-twofold symmetry surrounding a hydrophobic cavity filled by two lipid, eight peridinin, and two chlorophyll a molecules. The structural basis for efficient excitonic energy transfer from peridinin to chlorophyll is found in the clustering of peridinins around the chlorophylls at van der Waals distances.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hofmann, E -- Wrench, P M -- Sharples, F P -- Hiller, R G -- Welte, W -- Diederichs, K -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jun 21;272(5269):1788-91.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Fakultat fur Biologie, Universitat Konstanz, Germany.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8650577" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A protein phosphorylation switch at the conserved allosteric site in GP (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-09-13
    Description: A phosphorylation-initiated mechanism of local protein refolding activates yeast glycogen phosphorylase (GP). Refolding of the phosphorylated amino-terminus was shown to create a hydrophobic cluster that wedges into the subunit interface of the enzyme to trigger activation. The phosphorylated threonine is buried in the allosteric site. The mechanism implicates glucose 6-phosphate, the allosteric inhibitor, in facilitating dephosphorylation by dislodging the buried covalent phosphate through binding competition. Thus, protein phosphorylation-dephosphorylation may also be controlled through regulation of the accessibility of the phosphorylation site to kinases and phosphatases. In mammalian glycogen phosphorylase, phosphorylation occurs at a distinct locus. The corresponding allosteric site binds a ligand activator, adenosine monophosphate, which triggers activation by a mechanism analogous to that of phosphorylation in the yeast enzyme.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lin, K -- Rath, V L -- Dai, S C -- Fletterick, R J -- Hwang, P K -- DK32822/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Sep 13;273(5281):1539-42.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics, University of California at San Francisco, 513 Parnassus, San Francisco, CA 94143, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8703213" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Structural analysis of substrate binding by the molecular chaperone DnaK (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-06-14
    Description: DnaK and other members of the 70-kilodalton heat-shock protein (hsp70) family promote protein folding, interaction, and translocation, both constitutively and in response to stress, by binding to unfolded polypeptide segments. These proteins have two functional units: a substrate-binding portion binds the polypeptide, and an adenosine triphosphatase portion facilitates substrate exchange. The crystal structure of a peptide complex with the substrate-binding unit of DnaK has now been determined at 2.0 angstroms resolution. The structure consists of a beta-sandwich subdomain followed by alpha-helical segments. The peptide is bound to DnaK in an extended conformation through a channel defined by loops from the beta sandwich. An alpha-helical domain stabilizes the complex, but does not contact the peptide directly. This domain is rotated in the molecules of a second crystal lattice, which suggests a model of conformation-dependent substrate binding that features a latch mechanism for maintaining long lifetime complexes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Zhu, X -- Zhao, X -- Burkholder, W F -- Gragerov, A -- Ogata, C M -- Gottesman, M E -- Hendrickson, W A -- GM 34102/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM 37219/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jun 14;272(5268):1606-14.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biophysics, College of Physicians and Surgeons, Columbia University, New York 10032, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8658133" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Crystal structure of the dual specificity protein phosphatase VHR (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-05-31
    Description: Dual specificity protein phosphatases (DSPs) regulate mitogenic signal transduction and control the cell cycle. Here, the crystal structure of a human DSP, vaccinia H1-related phosphatase (or VHR), was determined at 2.1 angstrom resolution. A shallow active site pocket in VHR allows for the hydrolysis of phosphorylated serine, threonine, or tyrosine protein residues, whereas the deeper active site of protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) restricts substrate specificity to only phosphotyrosine. Positively charged crevices near the active site may explain the enzyme's preference for substrates with two phosphorylated residues. The VHR structure defines a conserved structural scaffold for both DSPs and PTPs. A "recognition region," connecting helix alpha1 to strand beta1, may determine differences in substrate specificity between VHR, the PTPs, and other DSPs.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yuvaniyama, J -- Denu, J M -- Dixon, J E -- Saper, M A -- AI 34095/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- DK18024/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- DK18849/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 May 31;272(5266):1328-31.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Biophysics Research Division and Department of Biological Chemistry, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor 48109-1055, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8650541" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Crystal structure of DNA recombination protein RuvA and a model for its binding to the Holliday junction (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-10-18
    Description: The Escherichia coli DNA binding protein RuvA acts in concert with the helicase RuvB to drive branch migration of Holliday intermediates during recombination and DNA repair. The atomic structure of RuvA was determined at a resolution of 1.9 angstroms. Four monomers of RuvA are related by fourfold symmetry in a manner reminiscent of a four-petaled flower.

    Structure of the MDM2 oncoprotein bound to the p53 tumor suppressor transactivation domain (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-11-08
    Description: The MDM2 oncoprotein is a cellular inhibitor of the p53 tumor suppressor in that it can bind the transactivation domain of p53 and downregulate its ability to activate transcription. In certain cancers, MDM2 amplification is a common event and contributes to the inactivation of p53. The crystal structure of the 109-residue amino-terminal domain of MDM2 bound to a 15-residue transactivation domain peptide of p53 revealed that MDM2 has a deep hydrophobic cleft on which the p53 peptide binds as an amphipathic alpha helix. The interface relies on the steric complementarity between the MDM2 cleft and the hydrophobic face of the p53 alpha helix and, in particular, on a triad of p53 amino acids-Phe19, Trp23, and Leu26-which insert deep into the MDM2 cleft. These same p53 residues are also involved in transactivation, supporting the hypothesis that MDM2 inactivates p53 by concealing its transactivation domain. The structure also suggests that the amphipathic alpha helix may be a common structural motif in the binding of a diverse family of transactivation factors to the TATA-binding protein-associated factors.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kussie, P H -- Gorina, S -- Marechal, V -- Elenbaas, B -- Moreau, J -- Levine, A J -- Pavletich, N P -- CA65698/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Nov 8;274(5289):948-53.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Cellular Biochemistry and Biophysics Program, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, New York, NY 10021, USA. nikola@xray2.mskcc.org〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8875929" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Reversible cleavage and formation of the dioxygen O-O bond within a dicopper complex (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-03-08
    Description: A key step in dioxygen evolution during photosynthesis is the oxidative generation of the O-O bond from water by a manganese cluster consisting of M2(mu-O)2 units (where M is manganese). The reverse reaction, reductive cleavage of the dioxygen O-O bond, is performed at a variety of dicopper and di-iron active sites in enzymes that catalyze important organic oxidations. Both processes can be envisioned to involve the interconversion of dimetal-dioxygen adducts, M2(O2), and isomers having M2(mu-O)2 cores. The viability of this notion has been demonstrated by the identification of an equilibrium between synthetic complexes having [Cu2(mu-eta2:eta2-O2)]2+ and [Cu2(mu-O)2]2+ cores through kinetic, spectroscopic, and crystallographic studies.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Halfen, J A -- Mahapatra, S -- Wilkinson, E C -- Kaderli, S -- Young, V G Jr -- Que, L Jr -- Zuberbuhler, A D -- Tolman, W B -- GM33162/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM47365/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Mar 8;271(5254):1397-400.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN 55455, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8596910" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Publication Date: 1996-09-20
    Description: Nucleic acid triplexes are formed by sequence-specific interactions between single-stranded polynucleotides and the double helix. These triplexes are implicated in genetic recombination in vivo and have application to areas that include genome analysis and antigene therapy. Despite the importance of the triple helix, only limited high-resolution structural information is available. The x-ray crystal structure of the oligonucleotide d(GGCCAATTGG) is described; it was designed to contain the d(G middle dotGC)2 fragment and thus provide the basic repeat unit of a DNA triple helix. Parameters derived from this crystal structure have made it possible to construct models of both parallel and antiparallel triple helices.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Vlieghe, D -- Van Meervelt, L -- Dautant, A -- Gallois, B -- Precigoux, G -- Kennard, O -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Sep 20;273(5282):1702-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Celestijnenlaan 200F, B-3001 Heverlee, Belgium.

    Description: C2 domains are found in many proteins involved in membrane traffic or signal transduction. Although C2 domains are thought to bind calcium ions, the structural basis for calcium binding is unclear. Analysis of calcium binding to C2 domains of synaptotagmin I and protein kinase C-beta by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy revealed a bipartite calcium-binding motif that involves the coordination of two calcium ions by five aspartate residues located on two separate loops. Sequence comparisons indicated that this may be a widely used calcium-binding motif, designated here as the C2 motif.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Shao, X -- Davletov, B A -- Sutton, R B -- Sudhof, T C -- Rizo, J -- R01-MH52804-01/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R29 NS33731-01A1/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jul 12;273(5272):248-51.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pharmacology, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, 5323 Harry Hines Boulevard, Dallas, TX 75235, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8662510" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    The crystal structure of a five-stranded coiled coil in COMP: a prototype ion channel? (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-11-01
    Description: Oligomerization by the formation of alpha-helical bundles is common in many proteins. The crystal structure of a parallel pentameric coiled coil, constituting the oligomerization domain in the cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP), was determined at 2.05 angstroms resolution. The same structure probably occurs in two other extracellular matrix proteins, thrombospondins 3 and 4. Complementary hydrophobic interactions and conserved disulfide bridges between the alpha helices result in a thermostable structure with unusual properties. The long hydrophobic axial pore is filled with water molecules but can also accommodate small apolar groups. An "ion trap" is formed inside the pore by a ring of conserved glutamines, which binds chloride and probably other monatomic anions. The oligomerization domain of COMP has marked similarities with proposed models of the pentameric transmembrane ion channels in phospholamban and the acetylcholine receptor.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Malashkevich, V N -- Kammerer, R A -- Efimov, V P -- Schulthess, T -- Engel, J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Nov 1;274(5288):761-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Structural Biology, Biozentrum, University of Basel, Klingelbergstrasse 70, CH-4056 Basel, Switzerland.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8864111" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The green fluorescent protein (GFP) from the Pacific Northwest jellyfish Aequorea victoria has generated intense interest as a marker for gene expression and localization of gene products. The chromophore, resulting from the spontaneous cyclization and oxidation of the sequence -Ser65 (or Thr65)-Tyr66-Gly67-, requires the native protein fold for both formation and fluorescence emission. The structure of Thr65 GFP has been determined at 1.9 angstrom resolution. The protein fold consists of an 11-stranded beta barrel with a coaxial helix, with the chromophore forming from the central helix. Directed mutagenesis of one residue adjacent to the chromophore, Thr203, to Tyr or His results in significantly red-shifted excitation and emission maxima.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ormo, M -- Cubitt, A B -- Kallio, K -- Gross, L A -- Tsien, R Y -- Remington, S J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Sep 6;273(5280):1392-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Molecular Biology and Department of Physics, University of Oregon, Eugene, OR 97403-1226, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8703075" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Functional mimicry of a protein hormone by a peptide agonist: the EPO receptor complex at 2.8 A (1996)

    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-07-26
    Description: The functional mimicry of a protein by an unrelated small molecule has been a formidable challenge. Now, however, the biological activity of a 166-residue hematopoietic growth hormone, erythropoietin (EPO), with its class 1 cytokine receptor has been mimicked by a 20-residue cyclic peptide unrelated in sequence to the natural ligand. The crystal structure at 2.8 A resolution of a complex of this agonist peptide with the extracellular domain of EPO receptor reveals that a peptide dimer induces an almost perfect twofold dimerization of the receptor. The dimer assembly differs from that of the human growth hormone (hGH) receptor complex and suggests that more than one mode of dimerization may be able to induce signal transduction and cell proliferation. The EPO receptor binding site, defined by peptide interaction, corresponds to the smaller functional epitope identified for hGH receptor. Similarly, the EPO mimetic peptide ligand can be considered as a minimal hormone, and suggests the design of nonpeptidic small molecule mimetics for EPO and other cytokines may indeed be achievable.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Livnah, O -- Stura, E A -- Johnson, D L -- Middleton, S A -- Mulcahy, L S -- Wrighton, N C -- Dower, W J -- Jolliffe, L K -- Wilson, I A -- GM-49497/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jul 26;273(5274):464-71.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology and the Skaggs Institute of Chemical Biology, The Scripps Research Institute, 10666 North Torrey Pines Road, La Jolla, CA 92037, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8662530" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Crystal structures of heparin-derived tetra- and hexasaccharides complexed with basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) were determined at resolutions of 1.9 and 2.2 angstroms, respectively. The heparin structure may be approximated as a helical polymer with a disaccharide rotation of 174 degrees and a translation of 8.6 angstroms along the helix axis. Both molecules bound similarly to a region of the bFGF surface containing residues asparagine-28, arginine-121, lysine-126, and glutamine-135, the hexasaccharide also interacted with an additional binding site formed by lysine-27, asparagine-102, and lysine-136. No significant conformational change in bFGF occurred upon heparin oligosaccharide binding, which suggests that heparin primarily serves to juxtapose components of the FGF signal transduction pathway.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Faham, S -- Hileman, R E -- Fromm, J R -- Linhardt, R J -- Rees, D C -- GM38060/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM45162/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- T32 GM08346/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Feb 23;271(5252):1116-20.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, CA 91125, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8599088" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    An alphabeta T cell receptor structure at 2.5 A and its orientation in the TCR-MHC complex (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-10-11
    Description: The central event in the cellular immune response to invading microorganisms is the specific recognition of foreign peptides bound to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules by the alphabeta T cell receptor (TCR). The x-ray structure of the complete extracellular fragment of a glycosylated alphabeta TCR was determined at 2.5 angstroms, and its orientation bound to a class I MHC-peptide (pMHC) complex was elucidated from crystals of the TCR-pMHC complex. The TCR resembles an antibody in the variable Valpha and Vbeta domains but deviates in the constant Calpha domain and in the interdomain pairing of Calpha with Cbeta. Four of seven possible asparagine-linked glycosylation sites have ordered carbohydrate moieties, one of which lies in the Calpha-Cbeta interface. The TCR combining site is relatively flat except for a deep hydrophobic cavity between the hypervariable CDR3s (complementarity-determining regions) of the alpha and beta chains. The 2C TCR covers the class I MHC H-2Kb binding groove so that the Valpha CDRs 1 and 2 are positioned over the amino-terminal region of the bound dEV8 peptide, the Vbeta chain CDRs 1 and 2 are over the carboxyl-terminal region of the peptide, and the Valpha and Vbeta CDR3s straddle the peptide between the helices around the central position of the peptide.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Garcia, K C -- Degano, M -- Stanfield, R L -- Brunmark, A -- Jackson, M R -- Peterson, P A -- Teyton, L -- Wilson, I A -- R01 CA58896/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- T32-A107244/PHS HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Oct 11;274(5285):209-19.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology and the Skaggs Institute of Chemical Biology, Scripps Research Institute, 10550 N.

    Essential yeast protein with unexpected similarity to subunits of mammalian cleavage and polyadenylation specificity factor (CPSF) (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-11-29
    Description: The 3' ends of most eukaryotic messenger RNAs are generated by internal cleavage and polyadenylation. In mammals, there is a strict dependence of both reactions on the sequence AAUAAA, which occurs upstream of polyadenylation [poly(A)] sites and which is recognized by CPSF. In contrast, cis-acting signals for yeast 3'-end generation are highly divergent from those of mammals, suggesting that trans-acting factors other than poly(A) polymerase would not be conserved. The essential yeast protein Brr5/Ysh1 shows sequence similarity to subunits of mammalian CPSF and is required for 3'-end processing in vivo and in vitro. These results demonstrate a structural and functional conservation of the yeast and mammalian 3'-end processing machineries despite a lack of conservation of the cis sequences.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Chanfreau, G -- Noble, S M -- Guthrie, C -- GM21119/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Nov 29;274(5292):1511-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics, UCSF School of Medicine, San Francisco, CA 94143-0448. guthrie@cgl.ucsf.edu.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8929408" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Publication Date: 1996-09-27
    Description: The reaction of metal complexes with dioxygen (O2) generally proceeds in 1:1, 21, or 41 (metal:O2) stoichiometry. A discrete, structurally characterized 31 product is presented. This mixed-valence trinuclear copper cluster, which contains copper in the highly oxidized trivalent oxidation state, exhibits O2 bond scission and intriguing structural, spectroscopic, and redox properties. The relevance of this synthetic complex to the reduction of O2 at the trinuclear active sites of multicopper oxidases is discussed.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cole, A P -- Root, D E -- Mukherjee, P -- Solomon, E I -- Stack, T D -- DK31450/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- GM50730/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Sep 27;273(5283):1848-50.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8791587" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Crystal structure of the yeast TFIIA/TBP/DNA complex (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-05-10
    Description: The crystal structure of the yeast TFIIA/TBP/TATA promoter complex was solved to 3 angstrom resolution by double-edge multiple wavelength anomalous diffraction from two different species of anomalous scattering elements in the same crystal. The large and small subunits of TFIIA associate intimately to form both domains of a two-domain folding pattern. TFIIA binds as a heterodimer to the side of the TBP/TATA complex opposite to the side that binds TFIIB and does not alter the TBP/DNA interaction. The six-stranded beta-sandwich domain interacts with the amino-terminal end of TBP through a stereospecific parallel beta-strand interface and with the backbone of the TATA box and the 5'-flanking B-DNA segment. The four-helix-bundle domain projects away from the TBP/TATA complex, thereby presenting a substantial surface for further protein-protein interactions.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Geiger, J H -- Hahn, S -- Lee, S -- Sigler, P B -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 May 10;272(5263):830-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06510, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8629014" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    The immunological evolution of catalysis (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-02-23
    Description: The germline genes used by the mouse to generate the esterolytic antibody 48G7 were cloned and expressed in an effort to increase our understanding of the detailed molecular mechanisms by which the immune system evolves catalytic function. The nine replacement mutations that were fixed during affinity maturation increased affinity for the transition state analogue by a factor of 10(4), primarily the result of a decrease in the dissociation rate of the hapten-antibody complex. There was a corresponding increase in the rate of reaction of antibody with substrate, k(cat)/k(m), from 1.7 x 10(2)M(-1) min(-1) to 1.4 x 10(4)M(-1) min(-1). The three-dimensional crystal structure of the 48G7-transition state analogue complex at 2.0 angstroms resolution indicates that one of the nine residues in which somatic mutations have been fixed directly contact the hapten. Thus, in the case of 48G7, affinity maturation appears to play a conformational role, either in reorganizing the active site geometry of limiting side-chain and backbone flexibility of the germline antibody. The crystal structure and analysis of somatic and directed active site mutants underscore the role of transition state stabilization in the evolution of this catalytic antibody.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Patten, P A -- Gray, N S -- Yang, P L -- Marks, C B -- Wedemayer, G J -- Boniface, J J -- Stevens, R C -- Schultz, P G -- R01 AL24695/PHS HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Feb 23;271(5252):1086-91.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Chemistry, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8599084" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Structure of the heat shock protein chaperonin-10 of Mycobacterium leprae (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-01-12
    Description: Members of the chaperonin-10 (cpn10) protein family, also called heat shock protein 10 and in Escherichia coli GroES, play an important role in ensuring the proper folding of many proteins. The crystal structure of the Mycobacterium leprae cpn10 (Ml-cpn10) oligomer has been elucidated at a resolution of 3.5 angstroms. The architecture of the Ml-cpn10 heptamer resembles a dome with an oculus in its roof. The inner surface of the dome is hydrophilic and highly charged. A flexible region, known to interact with cpn60, extends from the lower rim of the dome. With the structure of a cpn10 heptamer now revealed and the structure of the E. coli GroEL previously known, models of cpn10:cpn60 and GroEL:GroES complexes are proposed.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Mande, S C -- Mehra, V -- Bloom, B R -- Hol, W G -- AI07118/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI23545/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jan 12;271(5246):203-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biological Structure, University of Washington, Seattle 98195, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8539620" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The high-resolution x-ray crystal structures of the murine major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecule, I-E(k), occupied by either of two antigenic peptides were determined. They reveal the structural basis for the I-E(k) peptide binding motif and suggest general principles for additional alleles. A buried cluster of acidic amino acids in the binding groove predicted to be conserved among all murine I-E and human DR MHC class II molecules suggests how pH may influence MHC binding or exchange of peptides. These structures also complement mutational studies on the importance of individual peptide residues to T cell receptor recognition.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Fremont, D H -- Hendrickson, W A -- Marrack, P -- Kappler, J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 May 17;272(5264):1001-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biophysics, Columbia University, New York, 10032, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8638119" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
