    Notes: Abstract  HLA-DQ molecules have been associated with susceptibility to a number of autoimmune and other diseases, possibly through the peptide repertoire that can be presented by different allelic products. It is thus of importance to understand which peptides can be bound by different HLA-DQ allelic products. Recently, a model for HLA-DQ has been described and used to derive peptide positional environments for HLA-DQ allelic products. By combining the peptide positional environments with known HLA-DQ peptide binding motifs, a set of predictions of likely anchor motifs for many of the products of HLA-DQ allelic variants are made and presented in a table referred to as a roadmap for HLA-DQ peptide binding specificities.

    Notes: Abstract  The high level of polymorphism in major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules leads to many allele-specific peptide binding repertoires that can generally be characterized by sequence motifs. Such motifs have previously been elucidated experimentally for several MHC molecules and shown to bind in specificity pockets in the antigen binding cleft. Here, a new and less restrictive description of the traditional antigen binding pockets is derived. These regions are referred to as peptide binding environments and are defined as those residues in a fixed neighborhood of the peptide residues in known crystal structure complexes. By examining the antigen binding environments from MHC molecules with known motifs, we made predictions as to likely motifs for other MHC molecules which share the same environments. The predictions are presented in the form of Tables and are pertinent to class I HLA-A, HLA-B, and HLA-C MHC sequences, and are shown to correlate well with experiments.

    Notes: A tertiary model of the human GSTT2 Theta class glutathione transferase is presented based on the recently solved crystal structure of a related thetalike isoenzyme from Lucilia cuprina. Although the N-terminal domains are quite homologous, the C-terminal domains share less than about 20% identity. The model is used to consolidate the role of Ser 11 in the active site of the enzyme as well as to identify other residues and mechanisms of likely catalytic importance. The T2 subfamily of theta class enzymes have been shown to inactivate reactive sulfate esters arising from arylmethanols. A possible reaction pathway involving the conjugation of glutathione with one such sulfate ester, 1-menaphthyl-sulfate, is described. It is also proposed that the C-terminal region of the enzyme plays an important role in allowing substrate access to the active site. Proteins 27:118-130 © 1997 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: A manual threading approach is used to model the human glutathione transferase T1-1 based on the coordinates of the related Theta class enzyme T2-2. The low level of sequence identity (about 20%), found in the C-terminal extension in conjunction with a relative deletion of about five residues makes this a challenging modeling problem. The C-terminal extension contributes to the active site of the molecule and is thus of particular interest for understanding the molecular mechanism of the enzyme. Manual docking of known substrates and non-substrates has implicated potential candidates for the T1-1 catalytic residues involved in the dehalogenation and epoxide-ring opening activities. These include the conserved Theta class residues Arg 107, Trp 115, and the conserved GSTT1 subclass residue His 176. Also, the residue at position 234 is implicated in the modulation of T1-1 activity with different substrates between species. Proteins 33:444-454, 1998. © 1998 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
