Crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of tRNA (m(7)G46) methyltransferase from Escherichia coli.

Project description:Transfer RNA (tRNA) (m(7)G46) methyltransferase (TrmB) belongs to the Rossmann-fold methyltransferase (RFM) family and uses S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) as the methyl-group donor to catalyze the formation of N(7)-methylguanosine (m(7)G) at position 46 in the variable loop of tRNAs. After attempts to crystallize full-length Escherichia coli TrmB (EcTrmB) failed, a truncated protein lacking the first 32 residues of the N-terminus but with an additional His(6) tag at the C-terminus was crystallized by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method using polyethylene glycol 3350 (PEG 3350) as precipitant at 283 K. An X-ray diffraction data set was collected using a single flash-cooled crystal that belonged to space group P2(1).

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of the ArsM arsenic(III) S-adenosylmethionine methyltransferase.

Project description:Arsenic is the most ubiquitous environmental toxin and carcinogen and consequently ranks first on the Environmental Protection Agency's Superfund Priority List of Hazardous Substances. It is introduced primarily from geochemical sources and is acted on biologically, creating an arsenic biogeocycle. A common biotransformation is methylation to monomethylated, dimethylated and trimethylated species. Methylation is catalyzed by the ArsM (or AS3MT) arsenic(III) S-adenosylmethionine methyltransferase, an enzyme (EC 2.1.1.137) that is found in members of every kingdom from bacteria to humans. ArsM from the thermophilic alga Cyanidioschyzon sp. 5508 was expressed, purified and crystallized. Crystals were obtained by the hanging-drop vapor-diffusion method. The crystals belonged to the monoclinic space group C2, with unit-cell parameters a=84.85, b=46.89, c=100.35 A, beta=114.25 degrees and one molecule in the asymmetric unit. Diffraction data were collected at the Advanced Light Source and were processed to a resolution of 1.76 A.

Purification, crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of the 16S rRNA methyltransferase RsmI from Escherichia coli.

Project description:RsmI and RsmH are AdoMet-dependent methyltransferases that are responsible for the 2'-O-methylation and N(4)-methylation of C1402 of Escherichia coli 16S rRNA, respectively. Modification of this site has been found to play a role in fine-tuning the shape and function of the P-site to increase the decoding fidelity. It is interesting to study the mechanism by which C1402 can be methylated by both RsmI and RsmH. The crystal structure of RsmH in complex with AdoMet and cytidine has recently been determined and provided some implications for N(4)-methylation of this site. Here, the purification and crystallization of RsmI as well as its preliminary crystallographic analysis are reported. Co-crystallization of RsmI with AdoMet was carried out by the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method and X-ray diffraction data were collected to 2.60?Å resolution on beamline 1W2B at BSRF. The crystal contained three molecules per asymmetric unit and belonged to space group C2, with unit-cell parameters a = 121.9, b = 152.5, c = 54.2?Å, ? = 93.4°.

Purification, crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of the 23S rRNA methyltransferase RlmM (Cm2498) from Escherichia coli.

Project description:RlmM is an AdoMet-dependent methyltransferase that is responsible for 2'-O-methylation of C2498 in the peptidyl-transferase loop of bacterial 23S rRNA. This modification occurs before assembly of the 50S ribosomal subunit, and lack of C2498 methylation can cause a slight reduction in bacterial fitness. Here, the purification and crystallization of RlmM from Escherichia coli as well as its preliminary crystallographic analysis are presented. Cocrystallization of RlmM with AdoMet was carried out and X-ray diffraction data were collected to a resolution of 2.30 Å on beamline BL17U at the SSRF. However, electron density for AdoMet cannot be observed by comprehensive crystallographic analysis, indicating that it is not bound by RlmM during the cocrystallization process. The structure was solved by molecular replacement and refinement is in progress. The crystal contained one molecule in the asymmetric unit and belonged to space group P2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 56.07, b = 59.38, c = 54.35 Å, ? = 94.84°, which differs from the P3(1) or P3(1)21 space groups of previously reported RlmM structures (PDB entries 4auk, 4atn and 4b17).

Crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of nosiheptide-resistance methyltransferase from Streptomyces actuosus in complex with SAM.

Project description:Nosiheptide-resistance methyltransferase (NSR) methylates 23S rRNA at the nucleotide adenosine 1067 in Escherichia coli and thus contributes to resistance against nosiheptide, a sulfur-containing peptide antibiotic. Here, the expression, purification and crystallization of NSR from Streptomyces actuosus are reported. Diffracting crystals were grown by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method in reservoir solution consisting of 0.35 M ammonium chloride, 24%(w/v) PEG 3350, 0.1 M MES pH 5.7 at 293 K. Native data have been collected from the apo enzyme and a SAM complex, as well as apo SeMet SAD data. The diffraction patterns of the apo form of NSR, of NSR complexed with SAM and of SeMet-labelled NSR crystals extended to 1.90, 1.95 and 2.25 A resolution, respectively, using synchrotron radiation. All crystals belonged to space group P2(1), with approximate unit-cell parameters a = 64.6, b = 69.6, c = 64.9 A, beta = 117.8 degrees .

Crystallization and preliminary crystallographic studies of UbiG, an O-methyltransferase from Escherichia coli.

Project description:UbiG, an O-methyltransferase from the ubiquinone-biosynthesis pathway in Escherichia coli, catalyzes two O-methyl transfer steps. The primary structures of the O-methyltransferase enzyme family used in ubiquinone synthesis are conserved in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes, but their tertiary structures and catalytic mechanisms are not yet known. Here, UbiG with an N-terminal hexahistidine tag was expressed and crystallized. Crystals grown by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method diffracted to 2.00?Å resolution and belonged to space group C121, with unit-cell parameters a = 119.8, b = 58.6, c = 40.2?Å, ? = 105.3°. Both Matthews coefficient analysis and the self-rotation function suggested the presence of one molecule per asymmetric unit in the crystal, with a solvent content of 50.52% (V(M) = 2.48?Å(3)?Da(-1)).

Crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of manganese lipoxygenase.

Project description:Lipoxygenases constitute a family of nonhaem metal enzymes with catalytic iron or, occasionally, catalytic manganese. Lipoxygenases oxidize polyunsaturated fatty acids with position specificity and stereospecificity to hydroperoxides, which contribute to inflammation and the development of cancer. Little is known about the structural differences between lipoxygenases with Fe or Mn and the metal-selection mechanism. A Pichia pastoris expression system was used for the production of the manganese lipoxygenase of the take-all fungus of wheat, Gaeumannomyces graminis. The active enzyme was treated with α-mannosidase, purified to apparent homogeneity and subjected to crystal screening and X-ray diffraction. The crystals diffracted to 2.6 Å resolution and belonged to space group C2, with unit-cell parameters a = 226.6, b = 50.6, c = 177.92 Å, β = 91.70°.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic studies of O-methyltransferase from Anabaena PCC 7120.

Project description:O-Methyltransferase (OMT) is a ubiquitous enzyme that exists in bacteria, plants and humans and catalyzes a methyl-transfer reaction using S-adenosyl-L-methionine as a methyl donor and a wide range of phenolics as acceptors. To investigate the structure and function of OMTs, omt from Anabaena PCC 7120 was cloned into expression vector pET21a and expressed in a soluble form in Escherichia coli strain BL21 (DE3). The recombinant OMT protein was purified to homogeneity using a two-step strategy. Crystals of OMT that diffracted to a resolution of 2.4 A were obtained using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. The crystals belonged to space group C222(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 131.620, b = 227.994, c = 150.777 A, alpha = beta = gamma = 90 degrees . There are eight molecules per asymmetric unit.

Purification, Crystallization, and Preliminary Crystallographic Studies of Human As(III) S-Adenosylmethionine Methyltransferase (hAS3MT).

Project description:Exposure to environmental arsenic is associated with serious of health issues such as cancer, diabetes and developmental delays in infants and children. In human liver, As(III) S-adenosylmethionine methyl transferase (hAS3MT) (EC 2.1.1.137) was proposed to be an detoxification process by methylation of inorganic arsenite into pentavalent methyl MAs(V) and dimethyl arsenite DMAs(V). More recently the first product was shown to be highly toxic and potentially carcinogenic trivalent methylarsenite (MAs(III)). Our studies are designed to elucidate the mechanism of AS3MT and its contribution to arsenic-related diseases. Here, we report the first crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of the human AS3MT enzyme. The crystals belong to the monoclinic P1211 space group with unit cell parameters of a = 135.03 Å, b = 260.44 Å, c = 279.03 Å, α = 90.00°, β = 93.36°, γ = 90.00°.
