Critical Structural and Functional Roles for the N-Terminal Insertion Sequence in Surfactant Protein B Analogs

BACKGROUND: Surfactant protein B (SP-B; 79 residues) belongs to the saposin protein superfamily, and plays functional roles in lung surfactant. The disulfide cross-linked, N- and C-terminal domains of SP-B have been theoretically predicted to fold as charged, amphipathic helices, suggesting their pa...
