Point Mutation of a Non-Elastase-Binding Site in Human α1-Antitrypsin Alters Its Anti-Inflammatory Properties

INTRODUCTION: Human α1-antitrypsin (hAAT) is a 394-amino acid long anti-inflammatory, neutrophil elastase inhibitor, which binds elastase via a sequence-specific molecular protrusion (reactive center loop, RCL; positions 357–366). hAAT formulations that lack protease inhibition were shown to maintai...
