Crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction studies of two thermostable alpha-galactosidases from glycoside hydrolase family 36.

ABSTRACT: alpha-Galactosidases from thermophilic organisms have gained interest owing to their applications in the sugar industry. The alpha-galactosidases AgaA, AgaB and AgaA A355E mutant from Geobacillus stearothermophilus have been overexpressed in Escherichia coli. Crystals of AgaB and AgaA A355E have been obtained by the vapour-diffusion method and synchrotron data have been collected to 2.0 and 2.8 A resolution, respectively. Crystals of AgaB belong to space group I222 or I2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 87.5, b = 113.3, c = 161.6 A. Crystals of AgaA A355E belong to space group P3(1)21 or P3(2)21, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 150.1, c = 233.2 A.

Purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of a thermostable glycoside hydrolase family 43 beta-xylosidase from Geobacillus thermoleovorans IT-08.

Project description:The main enzymes involved in xylan-backbone hydrolysis are endo-1,4-beta-xylanase and beta-xylosidase. beta-Xylosidase converts the xylo-oligosaccharides produced by endo-1,4-beta-xylanase into xylose monomers. The beta-xylosidase from the thermophilic Geobacillus thermoleovorans IT-08, a member of glycoside hydrolase family 43, was crystallized at room temperature using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. Two crystal forms were observed. Bipyramid-shaped crystals belonging to space group P4(3)2(1)2, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 62.53, c = 277.4 A diffracted to 1.55 A resolution. The rectangular crystals belonged to space group P2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 57.94, b = 142.1, c = 153.9 A, beta = 90.5 degrees , and diffracted to 1.80 A resolution.

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.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of tetrathionate hydrolase from Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans.

Project description:Tetrathionate hydrolase (4THase) from the iron- and sulfur-oxidizing bacterium Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans catalyses the disproportionate hydrolysis of tetrathionate to elemental sulfur, thiosulfate and sulfate. The gene encoding 4THase (Af-tth) was expressed as inclusion bodies in recombinant Escherichia coli. Recombinant Af-Tth was activated by refolding under acidic conditions and was then purified to homogeneity. The recombinant protein was crystallized in 20 mM glycine buffer pH 10 containing 50 mM sodium chloride and 33%(v/v) PEG 1000 using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. The crystal was a hexagonal cylinder with dimensions of 0.2 × 0.05 × 0.05 mm. X-ray crystallographic analysis showed that the crystal diffracted to 2.15 Å resolution and belongs to space group P3(1) or P3(2), with unit-cell parameters a = b = 92.1, c = 232.6 Å.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of the organophosphorus hydrolase OPHC2 from Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes.

Project description:Enzymes that are capable of degrading neurotoxic organophosphorus compounds are of increasing interest because of the lack of efficient and clean methods for their removal. Recently, a novel organophosphorus hydrolase belonging to the metallo-?-lactamase superfamily was identified and isolated from the mesophilic bacterium Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes. This enzyme, named OPHC2, is endowed with significant thermal and pH stability, making it an appealing candidate for engineering studies to develop an efficient organophosphorus biodecontaminant. Combined with biochemical studies, structural information will help decipher the catalytic mechanism of organophosphorus hydrolysis by OPHC2 and identify the residues involved in its substrate specificity. Here, the expression, purification, crystallization and X-ray data collection at 2.1?Å resolution of OPHC2 are presented.

Expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of acylpeptide hydrolase from Deinococcus radiodurans.

Project description:Acylpeptide hydrolase (APH; EC 3.4.19.1), which belongs to the S9 family of serine peptidases (MEROPS), catalyzes the removal of an N-acylated amino acid from a blocked peptide. The role of this enzyme in mammalian cells has been suggested to be in the clearance of oxidatively damaged proteins as well as in the degradation of the β-amyloid peptides implicated in Alzheimer's disease. Detailed structural information for the enzyme has been reported from two thermophilic archaea; both of the archaeal APHs share a similar monomeric structure. However, the mechanisms of substrate selectivity and active-site accessibility are totally different and are determined by inter-domain flexibility or the oligomeric structure. An APH homologue from a bacterium, Deinococcus radiodurans (APHdr), has been crystallized using microbatch-under-oil employing the random microseed matrix screening method. The protein crystallized in space group P21, with unit-cell parameters a = 77.6, b = 189.6, c = 120.4 Å, β = 108.4°. A Matthews coefficient of 2.89 Å(3) Da(-1) corresponds to four monomers, each with a molecular mass of ∼73 kDa, in the asymmetric unit. The APHdr structure will reveal the mechanisms of substrate selectivity and active-site accessibility in the bacterial enzyme. It will also be helpful in elucidating the functional role of this enzyme in D. radiodurans.
