Abstract excerpt
The solution structure of human beta(2)-microglobulin (beta(2)-m) was determined by (1)H NMR spectroscopy and restrained modeling calculations. Compared to the crystal structure of type I major histocompatibility complex (MHC-I), where the protein is associated to the heavy-chain component, several differences are observed, i.e., increased separation between strands A and B, displacements of strand C' and loop...
