MFE-2s from various species reveal proteins with structurally homologous functional domains assembled in different compilations. Crystal structures of all domain types are known. SAXS data from human, fruit fly and Caenorhabditiselegans MFE-2s and their constituent domains were collected, and both ab initio and rigid body models constructed. Location of the putative substrate binding helper domain SCP-2L (sterol carrier protein 2-like), which is not part of MFE-2 protein in every species and not seen as part of any previous MFE-2 structures, was determined. The obtained models of human and C. elegans MFE-2 lend a direct structural support to the idea of the biological role of SCP-2L.
