Abstract: | The three-dimensional structure of a proteolytically modifiedprotein C inhibitor, a member of the serine protease inhibitorsuperfamily, was constructed with computer graphics based onits amino acid sequence homology with that of the modified 1-antitrypsinwhose structure had been elucidated by X-ray crystallography.The intact form of protein C inhibitor was predicted with an-carbon model based on its hydrophilicity and hydrogen bondpattern. Furthermore, a model of its interaction with activatedprotein C was constructed based on the structure of the complexbetween trypsin and its inhibitor, which had been determinedby X-ray crystallography. |
