Structural characterization of human S100A16, a low-affinity calcium binder.
(2011) J. Biol. Inorg. Chem. 16: 243-56
PMID: 21046186
Abstract:
The homodimeric structure of human S100A16 in the apo state has been obtained both in the solid state and in solution, resulting in good agreement between the structures with the exception of two loop regions. The homodimeric solution structure of human S100A16 was also calculated in the calcium(II)-bound form. Differently from most S100 proteins, the conformational rearrangement upon calcium binding is minor. This characteristic is likely to be related to the weak binding affinity of the protein for the calcium(II) ions. In turn, this is ascribed to the lack of the glutamate residue at the end of the S100-specific N-domain binding site, which in most S100 proteins provides two important side chain oxygen atoms as calcium(II) ligands. Furthermore, the presence of hydrophobic interactions stronger than for other S100 proteins, present in the closed form of S100A16 between the third and fourth helices, likely make the closed structure of the second EF-hand particularly stable, so even upon calcium(II) binding such a conformation is not disrupted.

Evidence demonstrating that the participating proteins are unstructured prior to the interaction and their folding is coupled to binding. Representative domain in related structures: S-100/ICaBP type EF hand dimer
Evidence level: Direct evidence
Evidence coverage: The full structure participates in mutual synergistic folding.
Complex Evidence:
GuHCl-induced denaturation of the S100B protein dimer showed that it follows a two-state unfolding/refolding process (PMID:11888280). Other S100 proteins also showed two-state unfolding, no folded monomers were observed (PMID:18346834, PMID:18706914). The dimer has a globular and compact structure with the four helices in each subunit aligning to form a unicornate-type four-helix bundle (PMID:11790100). The hydrophobic core extends through the dimer interface.

Surface and contacts features:
Structures from the PDB that contain the same number of proteins, and the proteins from the two structures show a sufficient degree of pairwise similarity, i.e. they belong to the same UniRef90 cluster (the full proteins exhibit at least 90% sequence identity) and convey roughly the same region to their respective interactions (the two regions from the two proteins share a minimum of 70% overlap).
