Exploring the Structural Details of Cu(I) Binding to ?-Synuclein by NMR Spectroscopy.
J Am Chem Soc. 2010 Dec 15;

The aggregation of ?-synuclein (AS) is selectively enhanced by copper in vitro, and the interaction is proposed to play a potential role in vivo. In this work, we report the structural, residue-specific characterization of Cu(I) binding to AS and demonstrate that the protein is able to bind Cu(I) with relatively high affinity in a coordination environment that involves the participation of Met1 and Met5 residues. This knowledge is a key to understanding the structural-aggregation basis of the copper-catalyzed oxidation of AS.

We employed several scoring methods in order to find the best protein conformations. Our results show that docking on NMR structures of calmodulin and centrin can be very helpful to take into account conformational changes occurring at protein-protein ...
