Serpin crystal structure and serpin polymer structure

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 2006
Serpins are a family of structurally homologous proteins having metastable native structures. As a result, a serpin variant destabilized by mutation(s) has a tendency to undergo conformational changes leading to inactive forms, e.g., the latent form and polymer. Serpin polymers are involved in a number of conformational diseases.

Identification of Serpin Determinants of Specificity and Selectivity for Furin Inhibition through Studies of α1PDX (α1-Protease Inhibitor Portland)-Serpin B8 and Furin Active-site Loop Chimeras [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2013
α1-Protease inhibitor Portland (α1PDX) is an engineered serpin family inhibitor of the proprotein convertase (PC), furin, that exhibits high specificity but limited selectivity for inhibiting furin over other PC family proteases.

Serpin mutagenesis

Methods, 2004
Mutagenesis represents a powerful methodology for the analysis of protein structural and functional relationships and dissection of complex protein-protein interactions. The suicide substrate-like inhibitory mechanism of the proteins of the serpin superfamily offers unique challenges for the design of mutagenesis studies.

The structure of active serpin 1K from Manduca sexta [PDF]

open access: yesStructure, 1999
Background: The reactive center loops (RCL) of serpins undergo large conformational changes triggered by the interaction with their target protease. Available crystallographic data suggest that the serpin RCL is polymorphic, but the relevance of the ...

Crystallography of Serpins and Serpin Complexes

2011
The serpin superfamily of protease inhibitors undergoes a remarkable conformational change to inhibit target proteases. To date, over 80 different serpin crystal structures have been determined. These data reveal that the serpin monomer can adopt five different conformations (native, partially inserted native, δ-form, latent, and cleaved).
