Expression, crystallization and preliminary crystallographic data analysis of filamin A repeats 14-16.

ABSTRACT: Human filamin A is a 280 kDa protein involved in actin-filament cross-linking. It is structurally divided into an actin-binding headpiece (ABD) and a rod domain containing 24 immunoglobulin-like (Ig) repeats. A fragment of human filamin A (Ig repeats 14-16) was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli and the purified protein was crystallized in 1.6 M ammonium sulfate, 2% PEG 1000 and 100 mM HEPES pH 7.5. The crystals diffracted to 1.95 A and belong to space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 50.63, b = 52.10, c = 98.46 A, alpha = beta = gamma = 90 degrees.

Expression, crystallization and preliminary crystallographic data analysis of VioD, a hydroxylase in the violacein-biosynthesis pathway.

Project description:Violacein, a natural purple secondary metabolite, is sequentially biosynthesized by five enzymes in the following pathway: VioA-VioB-VioE-VioD-VioC. VioD, a flavin-dependent oxygenase, catalyzes the hydroxylation of the intermediate product prodeoxyviolaceinic acid (PVA) at the 5-position of one indole ring to yield proviolacein. In vitro biochemical data have revealed this process, but the catalytic mechanism still remains largely unclear. Here, the cloning, expression, purification, crystallization and diffraction of VioD are reported. Crystals of VioD diffracted to 1.7 Å resolution and belonged to space group P31, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 90.0, c = 94.5 Å, α = β = 90, γ = 120°. Solvent-content calculation and molecular-replacement results suggest the presence of two molecules of VioD in the asymmetric unit.

Expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of Enpp6.

Project description:Enpp (ectonucleotide phosphodiesterase/pyrophosphatase) 6 is a membrane-bound glycoprotein that hydrolyzes choline-containing compounds such as lysophosphatidylcholine and glycerophosphorylcholine, and presumably participates in choline metabolism. The catalytic domain of mouse Enpp6 was expressed in HEK293T cells, purified using the TARGET tag/P20.1-Sepharose system and crystallized. An X-ray diffraction data set was collected to 1.8?Å resolution. The crystal belonged to space group P1, with unit-cell parameters a=63.7, b=68.8, c=69.7?Å, ?=60.6, ?=87.0, ?=68.1°. Assuming the presence of two protein molecules per asymmetric unit, the solvent content was estimated to be 49.5%.

Expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of human ?-galactosidase.

Project description:?-D-Galactosidase (?-Gal) is an exoglycosidase that cleaves ?-galactosides from glycoproteins, sphingolipids and keratan sulfate. This study reports the expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of human lysosomal ?-Gal. The sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method was used to crystallize ?-Gal in complexes with its product galactose and with the inhibitor 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin. The resulting crystals were isomorphous and belonged to space group P2(1). The crystals of the ?-Gal-galactose and the ?-Gal-inhibitor complexes had unit-cell parameters a = 94.8, b = 116.1, c = 140.3 Å, ? = 92.2° and a = 94.8, b = 116.0, c = 140.3 Å, ? = 92.2°, respectively. Diffraction data were collected to 1.8 Å resolution for both crystals.

Expression, crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of C-reactive protein from zebrafish.

Project description:C-reactive protein (CRP) is an acute phase protein that is found in blood, the concentration of which in plasma rises rapidly in response to inflammation. It functions as a pattern-recognition molecule, recognizing dead cells and various pathogenic agents and eliminating them by utilizing the classical complement pathway and activating macrophages. CRP is phylogenetically highly conserved in invertebrates and mammals. To date, information on the CRP gene has been reported from numerous species of animals, but little is known about the structure of CRP from species other than humans. In order to solve the structure of CRP from bony fish, the CRP gene from zebrafiah (Danio rerio) was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The zebrafish CRP (Dare-CRP) was then purified and crystallized. The crystal diffracted to 2.3 Å resolution and belonged to space group R3, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 114.7, c = 61.0 Å. The Matthews coefficient and solvent content were calculated to be 3.28 Å(3) Da(-1) and 62.55%, respectively. Determination of the zebrafish CRP structure should be helpful in investigating the evolution of CRPs in the innate immune system.

Expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of human Pim-1 kinase.

Project description:Pim kinases, including Pim-1, Pim-2 and Pim-3, belong to a distinctive serine/threonine protein-kinase family. They are involved in cytokine-induced signal transduction and the development of lymphoid malignancies. Their kinase domains are highly homologous to one another, but share low sequence identity to other kinases. Specifically, there are two proline residues in the conserved hinge-region sequence ERPXPX separated by a residue that is non-conserved among Pim kinases. Full-length human Pim-1 kinase (1-313) was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli as a GST-fusion protein and truncated to Pim-1 (14-313) by thrombin digestion during purification. The Pim-1 (14-313) protein was purified to high homogeneity and monodispersity. This protein preparation yielded small crystals in the initial screening and large crystals after optimization. The large crystals of apo Pim-1 enzyme diffracted to 2.1 A resolution and belong to space group P6(5), with unit-cell parameters a = b = 95.9, c = 80.0 A, beta = 120 degrees and one molecule per asymmetric unit.

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°.

Cloning, expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of NifH1 from Methanocaldococcus jannaschii.

Project description:Nitrogen fixation is catalyzed by the nitrogenase complex in Azotobacter, which is composed of dinitrogenase and dinitrogenase reductase. Dinitrogenase is an ?(2)?(2) heterotetramer of the proteins NifD and NifK. Dinitrogenase reductase is a homodimer of the protein NifH. The expression of NifD/K and NifH nitrogenase homologues (named NflD/K and NflH for Nif-like D and H, respectively) has been detected in the non-nitrogen-fixing hyperthermophilic methanogen Methanocaldococcus jannaschii. Solving the structure of MjNifH1 may help in better understanding its function and may supply some clues to understanding the evolution of nitrogenase. The full-length protein with an additional His(6) tag at the C-terminus was expressed, purified and crystallized by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method at 287 K. An X-ray diffraction data set was collected to a resolution of 3.3 Å. The crystal belonged to space group P4(1)32, with unit-cell parameters a = b = c = 139.45 Å, and was estimated to contain one protein molecule per asymmetric unit.

Expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of chitinase A from Vibrio carchariae.

Project description:Chitinase A of Vibrio carchariae was expressed in Escherichia coli M15 host cells as a 575-amino-acid fragment with full enzymatic activity using the pQE60 expression vector. The yield of the highly purified recombinant protein was approximately 70 mg per litre of bacterial culture. The molecular mass of the expressed protein was determined by HPLC/ESI-MS to be 63 770, including the hexahistidine tag. Crystals of recombinant chitinase A were grown to a suitable size for X-ray structure analysis in a precipitant containing 10%(v/v) PEG 400, 0.1 M sodium acetate pH 4.6 and 0.125 M CaCl2. The crystals belonged to the tetragonal space group P422, with two molecules per asymmetric unit and unit-cell parameters a = b = 127.64, c = 171.42 A. A complete diffraction data set was collected to 2.14 A resolution using a Rigaku/MSC R-AXIS IV++ detector system mounted on an RU-H3R rotating-anode X-ray generator.
