dc.description.abstract | Elastic fibers consist primarily of an amorphous elastin core associated with microfibrils, 10-12 nm in diameter, containing fibrillins and microfibril-associated glycoproteins (MAGPs). To investigate the interaction of MAGP-1 with tropoelastin and fibrillin-1, we expressed human MAGP-1 as a T7-tag fusion protein in Escherichia coli. Refolding of the purified protein produced a soluble form of MAGP-1 that displayed saturable binding to tropoelastin. Fragments of tropoelastin corresponding to the N-terminal, C-terminal, and central regions of the molecule were used to characterize the MAGP-1 binding site. Cleavage of tropoelastin with kallikrein, which cleaves after Arg515 in the central region of the molecule, disrupted the interaction, suggesting that the separated N- and C-terminal fragments were insufficient to determine MAGP-1 binding to intact tropoelastin. In addition, no evidence of an interaction was observed between MAGP-1 and a tropoelastin construct consisting of domains 17-27 that brackets the kallikrein cleavage site, suggesting a complex mechanism of interaction between the two molecules. Binding of MAGP-1 was also tested with overlapping recombinant fibrillin-1 fragments. MAGP-1 bound to a region at the N terminus of fibrillin-1 in a calcium-dependent manner. In summary, these results suggest a model for the interaction of elastin with the microfibrillar scaffold. | - |
