Differential effects of zinc on functionally distinct human growth hormone mutations.

Protein engineering - 1 Jul 2003

Duda K M, Brooks C L

Abstract excerpt

Human growth hormone (hGH) binds and activates lactogenic receptors by a sequential receptor dimerization mechanism. The affinity for the first lactogenic receptor is increased due to one zinc molecule linking hGH residues H18 and E174, located in helices 1 and 4, respectively, with two adjacent residues in the lactogenic receptor (D187 and H188). Two functionally unique groups of mutant hGHs have been...
