Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of a carbonyl reductase from Candida parapsilosis.

ABSTRACT: A novel short-chain NADPH-dependent (S)-1-phenyl-1,2-ethanediol dehydrogenase (SCR) has been crystallized. Two distinct but related crystal forms of SCR were obtained using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method and a reservoir solution consisting of 18%(w/v) polyethylene glycol 2000 monomethyl ether and 8%(v/v) 2-propanol as the precipitant. The crystals were rhomboid in shape with average dimensions of 0.3 x 0.3 x 0.4 mm and diffracted to a resolution of 2.7-3.0 A. The crystal forms both belong to space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) and have unit-cell parameters a = 104.7, b = 142.8, c = 151.8 A and a = 101.1, b = 146.0, c = 159.8 A. The calculated values of V(M), rotation-function and translation-function solutions and consideration of potential crystal packing suggest that there are eight protein subunits per asymmetric unit.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of (R)-carbonyl reductase from Candida parapsilosis.

Project description:The NADH-dependent (R)-carbonyl reductase from Candida parapsilosis (RCR) catalyzes the asymmetric reduction of 2-hydroxyacetophenone (HAP) to produce (R)-1-phenyl-1,2-ethanediol [(R)-PED], which is used as a versatile building block for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals. To gain insight into the catalytic mechanism, the structures of complexes of RCR with ligands, including the coenzyme, are important. Here, the recombinant RCR protein was expressed and purified in Escherichia coli and was crystallized in the presence of NAD+. The crystals, which belonged to the orthorhombic space group P2?2?2?, with unit-cell parameters a=85.64, b=106.11, c=145.55?Å, were obtained by the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method and diffracted to 2.15?Å resolution. Initial model building indicates that RCR forms a homotetramer, consistent with previous reports of medium-chain-type alcohol dehydrogenases.

Purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of xylose reductase from Candida tropicalis.

Project description:Xylose reductase (XR), which requires NADPH as a co-substrate, catalyzes the reduction of D-xylose to xylitol, which is the first step in the metabolism of D-xylose. The detailed three-dimensional structure of XR will provide a better understanding of the biological significance of XR in the efficient production of xylitol from biomass. XR of molecular mass 36.6 kDa from Candida tropicalis was crystallized using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. According to X-ray diffraction data from C. tropicalis XR crystals at 2.91 A resolution, the unit cell belongs to space group P3(1) or P3(2). Preliminary analysis indicated the presence of four XR molecules in the asymmetric unit, with 68.0% solvent content.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of enoyl-ACP reductase III (FabL) from Bacillus subtilis.

Project description:Enoyl-[acyl-carrier protein] reductase (enoyl-ACP reductase; ENR) is a key enzyme in type II fatty-acid synthase that catalyzes the last step in each elongation cycle. It has been considered as an antibiotic target since it is an essential enzyme in bacteria. However, recent studies indicate that some pathogens have more than one ENR. Bacillus subtilis is reported to have two ENRs, namely BsFabI and BsFabL. While BsFabI is similar to other FabIs, BsFabL shows very little sequence similarity and is NADPH-dependent instead of NADH-dependent as in the case of FabI. In order to understand these differences on a structural basis, BsFabL has been cloned, expressed and and crystallized. The crystal belongs to space group P622, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 139.56, c = 62.75 A, alpha = beta = 90, gamma = 120 degrees and one molecule of FabL in the asymmetric unit. Data were collected using synchrotron radiation (beamline 4A at the Pohang Light Source, Korea). The crystal diffracted to 2.5 A resolution.

Project description:Deinococcus radiodurans, a Gram-positive bacterium capable of withstanding extreme ionizing radiation, contains two thioredoxins (Trx and Trx1) and a single thioredoxin reductase (TrxR) as part of its response to oxidative stress. Thioredoxin reductase is a member of the family of pyridine nucleotide-disulfide oxidoreductase flavoenzymes. Recombinant D. radiodurans TrxR with a His tag at the N-terminus was expressed in Escherichia coli and purified by metal-affinity chromatography. The protein was crystallized using the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method in the presence of 35% PEG 4000, 0.2 M ammonium acetate and citric acid buffer pH 5.1 at 293 K. X-ray diffraction data were collected on a cryocooled crystal to a resolution of 1.9 angstroms using a synchrotron-radiation source. The space group was determined to be P3(2)21, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 84.33, c = 159.88 angstroms. The structure of the enzyme has been solved by molecular-replacement methods and structure refinement is in progress.

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°.
