Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
additional information in the presence of trifluoroethanol, the N-terminal half of the prodomain is better structured and more compactly folded than the C-terminal half of the prodomain. N-terminal residues 1-46 of the prodomain in 50% trifluoroethanol populates backbone conformations containing a short helix, a beta-strand and a helix-loop-helix supersecondary structure with elements of tertiary interactions. The intervening segment (residues 47-65) is predominately unstructured with a long and highly flexible region surrounding the protease ‘activation loop’ followed by a partially helical segment in the C-terminal end. A peptide fragment derived from residues Pro16-Arg49 can form the helix-loop-helix structure in aqueous solution in the absence of trifluoroethanol Homo sapiens
