Structure of PIN-domain protein PH0500 from Pyrococcus horikoshii.

ABSTRACT: The Pyrococcus horikoshii OT3 protein PH0500 is highly conserved within the Pyrococcus genus of hyperthermophilic archaea and shows low amino-acid sequence similarity with a family of PIN-domain proteins. The protein has been expressed, purified and crystallized in two crystal forms: PH0500-I and PH0500-II. The structure was determined at 2.0 A by the multiple anomalous dispersion method using a selenomethionyl derivative of crystal form PH0500-I (PH0500-I-Se). The structure of PH0500-I has been refined at 1.75 A resolution to an R factor of 20.9% and the structure of PH0500-II has been refined at 2.0 A resolution to an R factor of 23.4%. In both crystal forms as well as in solution the molecule appears to be a dimer. Searches of the databases for protein-fold similarities confirmed that the PH0500 protein is a PIN-domain protein with possible exonuclease activity and involvement in DNA or RNA editing.

An alternative domain-swapped structure of the Pyrococcus horikoshii PolII mini-intein.

Project description:Protein splicing is a post-translational process by which an intein catalyzes its own excision from flanking polypeptides, or exteins, concomitant with extein ligation. Many inteins have nested homing endonuclease domains that facilitate their propagation into intein-less alleles, whereas other inteins lack the homing endonuclease (HEN) and are called mini-inteins. The mini-intein that interrupts the DNA PolII of Pyrococcus horikoshii has a linker region in place of the HEN domain that is shorter than the linker in a closely related intein from Pyrococcus abyssi. The P. horikoshii PolII intein requires a higher temperature for catalytic activity and is more stable to digestion by the thermostable protease thermolysin, suggesting that it is more rigid than the P. abyssi intein. We solved a crystal structure of the intein precursor that revealed a domain-swapped dimer. Inteins found as domain swapped dimers have been shown to promote intein-mediated protein alternative splicing, but the solved P. horikoshii PolII intein structure has an active site unlikely to be catalytically competent.

Crystal structure of an archaeal Ski2p-like protein from Pyrococcus horikoshii OT3.

Project description:The Ski complex composed of Ski2p, Ski3p, and Ski8p plays an essential role in the 3' to 5' cytoplasmic mRNA degradation pathway in yeast. Ski2p is a putative RNA helicase, belonging in the DExD/H-box protein families and conserved in eukarya as well as in archaea. The gene product (Ph1280p) from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus horikoshii OT3 shows sequence homology with Ski2p, sharing 22.6% identical amino acids with a central region of Ski2p. In order to gain structural information about the Ski2p-like RNA helicase, we overproduced Ph1280p in Escherichia coli cells, and purified it to apparent homogeneity. Ph1280p exhibits DNA/RNA-dependent ATPase activity with an optimal temperature at approximately 90 degrees C. The crystal structure of Ph1280p has been solved at a resolution of 3.5 A using single-wavelength anomalous dispersion (SAD) and selenomethionyl (Se-Met)-substituted protein. Ph1280p comprises four subdomains; the two N-terminal subdomains (N1 and N2) fold into an RecA-like architecture with the conserved helicase motifs, while the two C-terminal subdomains (C1 and C2) fold into alpha-helical structures containing a winged helix (WH)-fold and helix-hairpin-helix (HhH)-fold, respectively. Although the structure of each of the Ph1280p subdomains can be individually superimposed on the corresponding domains in other helicases, such as the Escherichia coli DNA helicase RecQ, the relative orientation of the helicase and C-terminal subdomains in Ph1280p is significantly different from that of other helicases. This structural feature is implicated in substrate specificity for the Ski2-like helicase and would play a critical role in the 3' to 5' cytoplasmic mRNA degradation in the Ski complex.

Solution NMR structure of the 30S ribosomal protein S28E from Pyrococcus horikoshii.

Project description:We report NMR assignments and solution structure of the 71-residue 30S ribosomal protein S28E from the archaean Pyrococcus horikoshii, target JR19 of the Northeast Structural Genomics Consortium. The structure, determined rapidly with the aid of automated backbone resonance assignment (AutoAssign) and automated structure determination (AutoStructure) software, is characterized by a four-stranded beta-sheet with a classic Greek-key topology and an oligonucleotide/oligosaccharide beta-barrel (OB) fold. The electrostatic surface of S28E exhibits positive and negative patches on opposite sides, the former constituting a putative binding site for RNA. The 13 C-terminal residues of the protein contain a consensus sequence motif constituting the signature of the S28E protein family. Surprisingly, this C-terminal segment is unstructured in solution.

Crystal structure of SAM-dependent methyltransferase from Pyrococcus horikoshii.

Project description:Methyltransferases (MTs) are enzymes involved in methylation that are needed to perform cellular processes such as biosynthesis, metabolism, gene expression, protein trafficking and signal transduction. The cofactor S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) is used for catalysis by SAM-dependent methyltransferases (SAM-MTs). The crystal structure of Pyrococcus horikoshii SAM-MT was determined to a resolution of 2.1?Å using X-ray diffraction. The monomeric structure consists of a Rossmann-like fold (domain I) and a substrate-binding domain (domain II). The cofactor (SAM) molecule binds at the interface between adjacent subunits, presumably near to the active site(s) of the enzyme. The observed dimeric state might be important for the catalytic function of the enzyme.

Protein-protein interactions of the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus horikoshii OT3.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Although 2,061 proteins of Pyrococcus horikoshii OT3, a hyperthermophilic archaeon, have been predicted from the recently completed genome sequence, the majority of proteins show no similarity to those from other organisms and are thus hypothetical proteins of unknown function. Because most proteins operate as parts of complexes to regulate biological processes, we systematically analyzed protein-protein interactions in Pyrococcus using the mammalian two-hybrid system to determine the function of the hypothetical proteins. RESULTS: We examined 960 soluble proteins from Pyrococcus and selected 107 interactions based on luciferase reporter activity, which was then evaluated using a computational approach to assess the reliability of the interactions. We also analyzed the expression of the assay samples by western blot, and a few interactions by in vitro pull-down assays. We identified 11 hetero-interactions that we considered to be located at the same operon, as observed in Helicobacter pylori. We annotated and classified proteins in the selected interactions according to their orthologous proteins. Many enzyme proteins showed self-interactions, similar to those seen in other organisms. CONCLUSION: We found 13 unannotated proteins that interacted with annotated proteins; this information is useful for predicting the functions of the hypothetical Pyrococcus proteins from the annotations of their interacting partners. Among the heterogeneous interactions, proteins were more likely to interact with proteins within the same ortholog class than with proteins of different classes. The analysis described here can provide global insights into the biological features of the protein-protein interactions in P. horikoshii.

Unusual thermal disassembly of the SPFH domain oligomer from Pyrococcus horikoshii.

Project description:Stomatin, prohibitin, flotillin, and HflK/C (SPFH) domain proteins are membrane proteins that are widely conserved from bacteria to mammals. The molecular functions of these proteins have not been established. In mammals, the domain is often found in raft-associated proteins such as flotillin and podocin. We determined the structure of the SPFH domain of PH0470 derived from Pyrococcus horikoshii using NMR. The structure closely resembles that of the SPFH domain of the paralog PH1511, except for two C-terminal helices. The results show that the SPFH domain forms stable dimers, trimers, tetramers, and multimers, although it lacks the coiled-coil region for oligomerization, which is a highly conserved region in this protein family. The oligomers exhibited unusual thermodynamic behavior, as determined by circular dichroism, NMR, gel filtration, chemical cross-linking, and analytical ultracentrifugation. The oligomers were converted into monomers when they were heated once and then cooled. This transition was one-way and irreversible. We propose a mechanism of domain swapping for forming dimers as well as successive oligomers. The results of this study provide what to our knowledge are new insights into the common molecular function of the SPFH domain, which may act as a membrane skeleton through oligomerization by domain swapping.

Crystal structure of pyridoxal biosynthesis lyase PdxS from Pyrococcus horikoshii.

Project description:Pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) is the biologically active form of vitamin B(6) and is de novo synthesized from three substrates, dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP), riburose 5-phosphate (RBP), and ammonia hydrolysed from glutamine. Glutamine amidotransferase (PdxT) catalyzes the production of ammonia from glutamine, while PdxS catalyzes the following condensation of ribulose 5-phosphate (Ru5P), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P), and ammonia. PdxS exists as a hexamer or dodecamer depending on species and makes a 1:1 complex with PdxT. Pyrococcus horikoshii PdxS has a 37 amino acids insertion region, which is found in some archaeal PdxS proteins, but its structure and function are unknown. To provide further structural information on the role of the insertion region, the oligomeric state, and ligand binding mode of P. horikoshii PdxS, the crystal structure of PdxS from P. horikoshii was solved in two forms: (i) apo form, (ii) r ibose 5-phosphate (R5P) complex and the quaternary structure of PdxS in solution was determined by analytical gel filtration. P. horikoshii PdxS forms hexamer in solution based on analytical gel filtration data. When we superimpose the structure of P. horikoshii PdxS with other dodecamer structures of PdxS, the additional insertion is located apart from the active site and induces a steric clash on the hexamer-hexamer interface of PdxS proteins. Our results suggest that the additional insertion perturbs dodecamer formation of P. horikoshii PdxS.

Structure of peroxiredoxin from the anaerobic hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus horikoshii.

Project description:The crystal structure of peroxiredoxin from the anaerobic hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus horikoshii (PhPrx) was determined at a resolution of 2.25 Å. The overall structure was a ring-type decamer consisting of five homodimers. Citrate, which was included in the crystallization conditions, was bound to the peroxidatic cysteine of the active site, with two O atoms of the carboxyl group mimicking those of the substrate hydrogen peroxide. PhPrx lacked the C-terminal tail that forms a 32-residue extension of the protein in the homologous peroxiredoxin from Aeropyrum pernix (ApPrx).

Crystal structure of acylphosphatase from hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus horikoshii OT3

Project description:Analysis of the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus horikoshii OT3 genome database led to the discovery and cloning of acylphosphatase (ORF PH0305a). To elucidate the first structure of archaeal acylphosphatase, we determined the crystal structure of P. horikoshii acylphosphatase at 1.72 Å resolution. The space group of the crystals was P3221, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 86.6 Å and c = 75.4 Å. The overall fold of P. horikoshii acylphosphatase was very similar to the structures of the eukaryotic enzymes. The conformation of putative active site was highly conserved.
