摘要

We have determined the crystal structure of a complex containing the engrailed homodomain Gln50->Ala variant (QA50) bound to the wild-type optimal DNA site (TAATTA) at 2.0 A resolution. Biochemical and genetic studies by other groups have suggested that residue 50 is an important determinant of differential DNA-binding specificity among homeodomains (distinguishing among various sites of the general from TAATNN). However, biochemical studies of the QA50 variant had revealed that it binds almost as tightly as the wild-type protein and with only modest changes in specificity. We have now determined the crystal structure of the QA50 vairant to help understand the role of residue 50 in site-specific recognition. Our cocrystal structure shows some interesting changes in the water structure at the site of substitution and shows some changes in the conformations of neighboring side chains. However, the structure, like the QA50 biochemical data, suggests that Gln50 plays a relatively modest role in determining the affinity and specificity of the engrailed homeodomain.
