Abstract
Direct comparisons between the recently solved X-ray and NMR structures of human endothelin-1 with respect to secondary structure, RMS deviations, surface accessibilities, and side-chain conformers indicate important differences in conformation, especially in the C-terminus, but also in the central loop region, that are important for defining the specificity of binding. These differences are larger than seen for other X-ray and NMR structures that have been compared. Comparisons between the X-ray structure and the NMR NOE constraints highlight the regions of flexibility and environment-induced diversity in the endothelin structures.
