Crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of endo-1,3-beta-glucanase from alkaliphilic Nocardiopsis sp. strain F96.

ABSTRACT: Endo-1,3-beta-glucanase, an enzyme that hydrolyzes the 1,3-beta-glycosyl linkages of beta-glucan, belongs to the family 16 glycosyl hydrolases, which are widely distributed among bacteria, fungi and higher plants. Crystals of a family 16 endo-1,3-beta-glucanase from the alkaliphilic Nocardiopsis sp. strain F96 were obtained by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. The crystals belonged to space group P2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 34.59, b = 71.84, c = 39.67 A, beta = 90.21 degrees, and contained one molecule per asymmetric unit. The Matthews coefficient (VM) and solvent content were 1.8 A3 Da(-1) and 31.8%, respectively. Diffraction data were collected to a resolution of 1.3 A and gave a data set with an overall Rmerge of 6.4% and a completeness of 99.3%.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic studies of ?-transaminase from Mesorhizobium sp. strain LUK.

Project description:?-Transaminase (?-TA) catalyzes the transamination reaction between ?-aminocarboxylic acids and keto acids. This enzyme is a particularly suitable candidate for use as a biocatalyst for the asymmetric synthesis of enantiochemically pure ?-amino acids for pharmaceutical purposes. The ?-TA from Mesorhizobium sp. strain LUK (?-TAMs) belongs to a novel class in that it shows ?-transaminase activity with a broad and unique substrate specificity. In this study, ?-TAMs was overexpressed in Escherichia coli with an engineered C-terminal His tag. ?-TAMs was then purified to homogeneity and crystallized at 293?K. X-ray diffraction data were collected to a resolution of 2.5?Å from a crystal that belonged to the orthorhombic space group C222(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 90.91, b = 192.17, c = 52.75?Å.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of α-glucosidase HaG from Halomonas sp. strain H11.

Project description:The α-glucosidase HaG from the halophilic bacterium Halomonas sp. strain H11 catalyzes the hydrolysis of the glucosidic linkage at the nonreducing end of α-glucosides, such as maltose and sucrose, to release α-glucose. Based on its amino-acid sequence, this enzyme is classified as a member of glycoside hydrolase family 13. HaG has three unique characteristics: (i) a very narrow substrate specificity, almost exclusively hydrolyzing disaccharides; (ii) activation by monovalent cations, such as K(+), Rb(+), Cs(+) and NH4(+); and (iii) high transfer activity of the glucose moiety to the OH group of low-molecular-weight compounds, including glycerol and 6-gingerol. Crystallographic studies have been performed in order to understand these special features. An expression vector was constructed and recombinant HaG protein was overexpressed, purified and crystallized. A data set to 2.15 Å resolution was collected and processed. The crystal belonged to space group P212121, with unit-cell parameters a = 60.2, b = 119.2, c = 177.2 Å. The structure has been determined by molecular replacement using the isomaltulose synthase PalI as the search model (PDB entry 1m53).

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of a trimodular endo-?-1,4-glucanase (Cel5B) from Bacillus halodurans.

Project description:Cellulases catalyze the hydrolysis of cellulose, the major constituent of plant biomass and the most abundant organic polymer on earth. Cellulases are modular enzymes containing catalytic domains connected, via linker sequences, to noncatalytic carbohydrate-binding modules (CBMs). A putative modular endo-?-1,4-glucanase (BhCel5B) is encoded at locus BH0603 in the genome of Bacillus halodurans. It is composed of an N-terminal glycoside hydrolase family 5 catalytic module (GH5) followed by an immunoglobulin-like module and a C-terminal family 46 CBM (BhCBM46). Here, the crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of the trimodular BhCel5B are reported. The crystals of BhCel5B belonged to the orthorhombic space group P2121 2 and data were processed to a resolution of 1.64?Å. A molecular-replacement solution has been found.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of an endo-1,4-β-D-glucanase from Aspergillus aculeatus F-50.

Project description:Cellulose is the most abundant renewable biomass on earth, and its decomposition has proven to be very useful in a wide variety of industries. Endo-1,4-β-D-glucanase (EC 3.2.1.4; endoglucanase), which can catalyze the random hydrolysis of β-1,4-glycosidic bonds to cleave cellulose into smaller fragments, is a key cellulolytic enzyme. An endoglucanase isolated from Aspergillus aculeatus F-50 (FI-CMCase) that was classified into glycoside hydrolase family 12 has been found to be effectively expressed in the industrial strain Pichia pastoris. Here, recombinant FI-CMCase was crystallized. Crystals belonging to the orthorhombic space group C222₁, with unit-cell parameters a = 74.2, b = 75.1, c = 188.4 Å, were obtained by the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method and diffracted to 1.6 Å resolution. Initial phase determination by molecular replacement clearly shows that the crystal contains two protein molecules in the asymmetric unit. Further model building and structure refinement are in progress.

Characterization of Pneumocystis murina Bgl2, an Endo-β-1,3-Glucanase and Glucanosyltransferase.

Project description:Glucan is the major cell wall component of Pneumocystis cysts. In the current study, we have characterized Pneumocystis Bgl2 (EC 3.2.1.58), an enzyme with glucanosyltransferase and β-1,3 endoglucanase activity in other fungi. Pneumocystis murina, Pneumocystis carinii, and Pneumocystis jirovecii bgl2 complementary DNA sequences encode proteins of 437, 447, and 408 amino acids, respectively. Recombinant P. murina Bgl2 expressed in COS-1 cells demonstrated β-glucanase activity, as shown by degradation of the cell wall of Pneumocystis cysts. It also cleaved reduced laminaripentaose and transferred oligosaccharides, resulting in polymers of 6 and 7 glucan residues, demonstrating glucanosyltransferase activity. Surprisingly, confocal immunofluorescence analysis of P. murina-infected mouse lung sections using an antibody against recombinant Bgl2 showed that the native protein is localized primarily to the trophic form of Pneumocystis in both untreated mice and mice treated with caspofungin, an antifungal drug that inhibits β-1,3-glucan synthase. Thus, like other fungi, Bgl2 of Pneumocystis has both endoglucanase and glucanosyltransferase activities. Given that it is expressed primarily in trophic forms, further studies are needed to better understand its role in the biology of Pneumocystis.

Expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of Aspergillus terreus endo-β-1,4-glucanase from glycoside hydrolase family 12.

Project description:Endoglucanases are important enzymes that are involved in the modification and degradation of cellulose. Filamentous fungi such as Aspergillus terreus are effective biomass degraders in nature owing to their capacity to produce an enzymatic arsenal of glycoside hydrolases, including endoglucanase from glycoside hydrolase family 12 (GH12). The A. terreus GH12 endoglucanase was cloned and overexpressed in A. nidulans, purified and crystallized. A single crystal was obtained from a solution consisting of 2 M ammonium sulfate, 5%(v/v) 2-propanol. X-ray diffraction data were collected to a resolution of 1.85 Å using synchrotron radiation and a preliminary molecular-replacement solution was obtained in the trigonal space group P3(2)21. The unit-cell parameters were a = b = 103.24, c = 48.96 Å.
