Vitamin K-dependent carboxylation/gamma-carboxyglutamic (GLA) domain
is a protein domain that contains post-translational modifications of
many glutamate residues by vitamin K-dependent carboxylation
to form gamma-carboxyglutamate (Gla). The Gla residues are responsible for the high-affinity binding of calcium ions [1][2].
The GLA domain is responsible for the high-affinity binding of calcium ions. It starts at the N-terminal extremity of the mature form of proteins and ends with a conserved aromatic residue; a conserved Gla-x(3)-Gla-x-Cys motif[3] is found in the middle of the domain which seems to be important for substrate recognition by the carboxylase.
The 3D structures of several Gla domains have been solved[4][5]. Calcium ions induce conformational changes in the Gla domain and are necessary for the Gla domain to fold properly. A common structural feature of functional Gla domains is the clustering of N-terminal hydrophobic residues into a hydrophobic patch that mediates interaction with the cell surface membrane[5].
