METHOD The structure of VANX was predicted to be similar with  
METHOD ZN DD-peptidase(PDB code 1lbu) or N-terminal domain of sonic hedgehog  
METHOD protein(PDB code 1vhh) fold by McCafferty et al. (Biochemistry 1997)  
METHOD according to the mutagenesis to identify the Zn binding sites and motif  
METHOD search. Their result appears promising, because 
METHOD these structure coincide with the literature of structure  
METHOD submitters: they have anti-parallel beta-sheets and Zn binding  
METHOD site. So we asked whether our methods support the results or not.  
METHOD Among several trials, only the inverse folding search including  
METHOD sequence information of the C-terminal domain of 1lbu structure  
METHOD detects the C-terminal half sequence of VANX with mid 25  
METHOD amino acids deleted (speculated as gaps). Therefore, we very  
METHOD weakly suggest the last half sequence including the Zn-binding  
METHOD motif has possible compatibility with the last half of 1lbu structure, 
METHOD if a large gap region is allowed.
