Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of Escherichia coliglutaredoxin 2 in complex with glutathione and of a cysteine-less variant without glutathione.

ABSTRACT: Glutaredoxin 2 (Grx2) from Escherichia coli is larger in size than classical glutaredoxins. It is extremely efficient in the catalysis of reduced glutathione-dependent disulfide reduction. A complex of Grx2 with reduced glutathione (GSH) has been crystallized. Data were collected to 1.60 A. The crystals belong to space group P3(2)21, with one Grx2-GSH complex in the asymmetric unit. The unit-cell parameters are a = b = 50.10, c = 152.47 A. A Grx2 mutant, C9S/C12S, which cannot form a disulfide bond with GSH was also crystallized. The crystals diffracted to 2.40 A and belong to space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with one molecule in the asymmetric unit. The unit-cell parameters are a = 28.16, b = 78.65, c = 89.16 A.

Expression, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic study of ethanolamine ammonia-lyase from Escherichia coli.

Project description:Ethanolamine ammonia-lyase (EAL) catalyzes the adenosylcobalamin-dependent conversion of ethanolamine to acetaldehyde and ammonia. The wild-type enzyme shows a very low solubility. N-terminal truncation of the Escherichia coli EAL beta-subunit dramatically increases the solubility of the enzyme without altering its catalytic properties. Two deletion mutants of the enzyme [EAL(betaDelta4-30) and EAL(betaDelta4-43)] have been overexpressed, purified and crystallized using the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method. Crystals of EAL(betaDelta4-30) and EAL(betaDelta4-43) diffracted to approximately 8.0 and 2.1 A resolution, respectively.

Expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction crystallographic study of PurH from Escherichia coli.

Project description:In bacteria and eukaryotes, the last two steps of de novo purine biosynthesis are catalyzed by bifunctional purine-biosynthesis protein (PurH), which is composed of two functionally independent domains linked by a flexible region. The N-terminal domain possesses IMP cyclohydrolase activity and the C-terminal domain possesses aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide transformylase activity. This study reports the expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of PurH from Escherichia coli with an N-terminal His(6) tag. The crystals diffracted to a maximum resolution of 3.05 Å and belonged to the monoclinic space group P2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 76.37, b = 132.15, c = 82.64 Å, ? = 111.86°.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of Z-ring-associated protein (ZapD) from Escherichia coli.

Project description:Bacterial cytokinesis is accomplished by the Z-ring, which is a polymeric structure that includes the tubulin homologue FtsZ at the division site. ZapD, a Z-ring-associated protein, directly binds to FtsZ and stabilizes the polymerization of FtsZ to form a stable Z-ring during cytokinesis. Structural analysis of ZapD from Escherichia coli was performed to investigate the mechanism of ZapD-mediated FtsZ stabilization and polymerization. ZapD was crystallized using a reservoir solution consisting of 1.5 M lithium sulfate, 0.1 M HEPES pH 7.8, 2%(v/v) polyethylene glycol 400. X-ray diffraction data were collected to 2.95 Å resolution. The crystals belonged to the hexagonal space group P64, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 109.5, c = 106.7 Å, γ = 120.0°. Two monomers were present in the asymmetric unit, resulting in a crystal volume per protein mass (VM) of 3.25 Å(3) Da(-1) and a solvent content of 62.17%.

Crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of cysteine synthase from Entamoeba histolytica.

Project description:Entamoeba histolytica, the causative agent of human amoebiasis, is essentially anaerobic, requiring a small amount of oxygen for growth. It cannot tolerate the higher concentration of oxygen present in human tissues or blood. However, during tissue invasion it is exposed to a higher level of oxygen, leading to oxygen stress. Cysteine, which is a vital thiol in E. histolytica, plays an essential role in its oxygen-defence mechanisms. The major route of cysteine biosynthesis in this parasite is the condensation of O-acetylserine with sulfide by the de novo cysteine-biosynthetic pathway, which involves cysteine synthase (EhCS) as a key enzyme. In this study, EhCS was cloned, expressed in Escherichia coli and purified by affinity and size-exclusion chromatography. The purified protein was crystallized in space group P4(1) with two molecules per asymmetric unit and a complete data set was collected to a resolution of 1.86 A. A molecular-replacement solution was obtained using the Salmonella typhimurium O-acetylserine sulfhydrylase structure as a probe and had a correlation coefficient of 37.7% and an R factor of 48.8%.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic studies of swine CD8?.

Project description:CD8?? homodimers or CD8?? heterodimers form on the T-cell surface, where they are essential as co-receptors for MHC class I molecules in activation of the CTL response. To date, swine have been found to show the highest percentage of lymphocytes with surface expression of CD8?. Crystallographic analysis of swine CD8? (sCD8?) to 1.8?Å resolution revealed that the crystals belonged to space group P3(2)21, with unit-cell parameters a = 80.97, b = 80.97, c = 95.19?Å. The Matthews coefficient and the solvent content were calculated to be 3.23?Å(3)?Da(-1) and 61.89%, respectively. These results may aid further structural and functional analyses of sCD8?.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of human autotaxin.

Project description:Autotaxin (ATX), which is also known as ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 2 (NPP2 or ENPP2) or phosphodiesterase Iα (PD-Iα), is an extracellular lysophospholipase D which generates lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) from lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC). ATX stimulates tumour-cell migration, angiogenesis and metastasis and is an attractive target for cancer therapy. For crystallographic studies, the α isoform of human ATX was overproduced in Escherichia coli, purified and crystallized using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. X-ray diffraction data were collected to 3.0 Å resolution from a monoclinic crystal form belonging to space group C2, with unit-cell parameters a = 311.4, b = 147.9, c = 176.9 Å, β = 122.6°.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of a highly stable mutant V107A of glutathione transferase from Anopheles dirus in complex with glutathione.

Project description:An engineered mutant V107A of the dimeric glutathione transferase enzyme from Anopheles dirus (adgstD4-4) was cocrystallized with glutathione substrate using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. The crystal diffracted to 2.47 A resolution in space group P3(2)21 (unit-cell parameters a = b = 49.4, c = 272.4 A). Although the crystal morphology differed from that previously obtained for the wild-type enzyme, the crystal packing was the same. At 318 K, the engineered mutant showed an enzyme stability that was increased by about 32-fold, while possessing a similar catalytic function to the wild type. Structural determination will provide valuable understanding of the role of Val107. This residue is in the dimeric interface and appears to contribute towards enhancing the physical properties of the entire protein.

Expression, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic studies of the outer membrane protein OmpW from Escherichia coli.

Project description:OmpW is an eight-stranded 21 kDa molecular-weight beta-barrel protein from the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria. It is a major antigen in bacterial infections and has implications in antibiotic resistance and in the oxidative degradation of organic compounds. OmpW from Escherichia coli was cloned and the protein was expressed in inclusion bodies. A method for refolding and purification was developed which yields properly folded protein according to circular-dichroism measurements. The protein has been crystallized and crystals were obtained that diffracted to a resolution limit of 3.5 angstroms. The crystals belong to space group P422, with unit-cell parameters a = 122.5, c = 105.7 angstroms. A homology model of OmpW is presented based on known structures of eight-stranded beta-barrels, intended for use in molecular-replacement trials.
