dc.description.abstractThe crystal structure of the elicitin h-cinnamomin (h-CIN) was determined in complex with ergosterol at 1.1 A° resolution. h-CIN/ergosterol complex crystallized in the monoclinic space group P21, with unit cell parameters of a =31.0, b =62.8, c =50.0 A° and b =93.4- and two molecules in the asymmetric unit. Ligand extraction with chloroform followed by crystallographic analysis yielded a 1.35 A° structure of h-CIN (P43212 space group) where the characteristic elicitin fold was kept. After incubation with cholesterol, a new complex structure was obtained, showing that the protein retains, after the extraction procedure, its ability to complex sterols. The necrotic effect of h-CIN on tobacco was also shown to remain unchanged. Theoretical docking studies of the triterpene lupeol to h-CIN provided an explanation for the apparent inability of h-CIN to bind this ligand, as observed experimentally. D 2005 Elsevier B.V.
