title: Prediction of the tertiary structure of parathyroid-hormone-related protein (residues 1-34) by the island model.
abstract: Prediction of the tertiary structure of a 34 residue N-terminal fragment of parathyroid-hormone-related protein was carried out by the island model. This peptide is known as a major causative agent of humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy, but structural information studied by X-ray diffraction has not been reported. We adopted the secondary structure determined by NMR and packed on the basis of island model of protein folding developed by us. Predicted structure is discussed in connection with the interaction of active sites.
