A high resolution 1H NMR study of the solution structure of human epidermal growth factor. 1986

J A Carver, and R M Cooke, and G Esposito, and I D Campbell, and H Gregory, and B Sheard

500 MHz 1H NMR studies of human epidermal growth factor are described. The backbone resonances of the 1-48 derivative of hEGF have been assigned using two-dimensional techniques. Analysis of the type and magnitude of the observed sequential nuclear Overhauser effects and the NH-alpha CH spin-spin coupling constants allowed prediction of the secondary structure. Aspects of the tertiary structure are also identified. A pair of antiparallel beta-sheets involving residues 18-23 and 28-34 is a dominant feature of the solution structure.

PROTEIN STRUCTURE, QUATERNARY describes the conformation assumed by multimeric proteins (aggregates of more than one polypeptide chain). Conformation, Protein,Conformations, Protein,Protein Conformations
D011522 Protons Stable elementary particles having the smallest known positive charge, found in the nuclei of all elements. The proton mass is less than that of a neutron. A proton is the nucleus of the light hydrogen atom, i.e., the hydrogen ion. Hydrogen Ions,Hydrogen Ion,Ion, Hydrogen,Ions, Hydrogen,Proton
D002621 Chemistry A basic science concerned with the composition, structure, and properties of matter; and the reactions that occur between substances and the associated energy exchange.
D004815 Epidermal Growth Factor A 6-kDa polypeptide growth factor initially discovered in mouse submaxillary glands. Human epidermal growth factor was originally isolated from urine based on its ability to inhibit gastric secretion and called urogastrone. Epidermal growth factor exerts a wide variety of biological effects including the promotion of proliferation and differentiation of mesenchymal and EPITHELIAL CELLS. It is synthesized as a transmembrane protein which can be cleaved to release a soluble active form.
