Abstract excerpt
The interferon-gamma inducible large GTPase human guanylate binding protein-1 (hGBP-1) plays a key role in anti-pathogenic and anti-proliferative functions. This protein hydrolyzes GTP to both GDP and GMP (predominant product) through sequential phosphate cleavages, which makes it functionally distinct from other GTPases. Previous study on truncated variants of hGBP-1 suggested that the α-helix present in the...
