Crystal structure of human GM2-activator protein with a novel beta-cup topologyC S Wright
Department of Pharmacology, X ray Crystallography Laboratory, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA 22908 0735, USA
J Mol Biol 304:411-22. 2000..The dimensions of this cavity (12 Ax14 Ax22 A) are suitable for binding 18-carbon lipid acyl chains. Flexible surface loops and a short alpha-helix decorate the mouth of the beta-cup and may control lipid entry to the cavity...
