| Side-chains of P188, N189, and T250 penetrate the hydrocarbon core. Residues in positions 188 and 250 were not spin-labeled. Residues N189, R249 and R252 were shown to be the closest to the membrane (positive depth parameters after substitutions of the corresponding residues by spin-labeled cysteines) (Kohout et al. 2003, Table 3). Two calcium ions are located at the distances of 5.3 and 5.9 A beyond the hydrophobic boundary, i.e. 0.3 and 0.9 A, respectively, beyond the level of bulk lipid phosphates. This is consistent with EPR studies (Malmberg and Falke 2005). Maximal membrane binding affinity is -6.7 kcal/mol (Kohout et al. 2003), -10.8 kcal/mol (Stahelin and Cho 2001), or -12.8 kcal/mol (Stahelin et al. 2003). This is higher than the calculated transfer energy (-0.6 kcal/mol without the ligand) due to specific binding of the phosphatidyl serine. |
