Dynamics-modulated biological activity of transforming growth factor
3
3 (TGF-
3) is an important mediator of growth, maintenance and repair processes in human cells. Internal dynamic properties have been derived from 15N NMR relaxation data and mapped onto the spatial structure of TGF-
3. The pattern of internal dynamics in the structure identifies potential hot spots of binding free energy and reveals the importance of conformational entropy in the interaction of TGF-
3 with the receptors. The observed internal dynamics sets TGF-
3 apart from other TGF-
isoforms, with which it shares the same fold. These findings explain functional differences among the various TGF-
isoforms and thus prove essential in the search for related therapeutic agents.
