A reassessment of the MAdCAM-1 structure and its role in integrin recognition

A second crystal structure of human mucosal addressin cell-adhesion molecule reveals that strand swapping can lead to dimer assembly and alters the conformation of the proposed integrin-binding surface.

The crystal structure of PEBP-2, a homologue of the PEBP/RKIP family

The crystal structure of a mouse phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein homologue (mPEBP-2) has been determined to 1.8 Å. Regions of distinctive sequence associated with the PEBP-2 subset identified from alignments of the PEBP family are discussed with reference to the structure.
