ZG16 binds microbial pathogens, and lower ZG16 expression levels correlate with colorectal cancer, but the physiological function of the protein is poorly understood. One prominent attribute of ZG16 is its ability to bind glycans, but other aspects of the protein may also contribute to activity. An intriguing feature of ZG16 is a CXXC motif at the carboxy terminus. Here, we describe crystal structures and biochemical studies showing that the CXXC motif is on a flexible tail, where it contributes little to structure or stability but is available to engage in redox reactions. Specifically, we demonstrate that the ZG16 cysteine thiols can be oxidized to a disulfide by quiescin sulfhydryl oxidase 1, which is a sulfhydryl oxidase present together with ZG16 in the Golgi apparatus and in mucus, as well as by protein disulfide isomerase. ZG16 crystal structures also draw attention to a nonproline cis peptide bond that can isomerize within the protein and to the mobility of glycine-rich loops in the glycan-binding site. An understanding of the properties of the ZG16 CXXC motif and the discovery of internal conformational switches extend existing knowledge relating to the glycan-binding activity of the protein.
