Abstract excerpt
Although the immunoglobulin-like beta-sandwich fold has no specifically conserved function, some common structural features have been observed, in particular a structural motif, the tyrosine corner. Such a motif was described in neocarzinostatin (NCS), a bacterial protein the structure of which is very similar to that of the immunoglobulin domain. Compared with the other beta-sheet proteins, the NCS 'tyrosine...
