Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of a 40 kDa N-terminal fragment of the yeast prion-remodeling factor Hsp104.

ABSTRACT: A 40 kDa N-terminal fragment of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Hsp104 was crystallized in two different crystal forms. Native 1 diffracted to 2.6 A resolution and belonged to space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 66.6, b = 75.8, c = 235.7 A. Native 2 diffracted to 2.9 A resolution and belonged to space group P6(1)22 or P6(5)22, with unit-cell parameters a = 179.1, b = 179.1, c = 69.7 A. This is the first report of the crystallization of a eukaryotic member of the Hsp100 family of molecular chaperones.

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°.

Characterization, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of the Uba5 fragment necessary for high-efficiency activation of Ufm1.

Project description:Uba5 is the smallest ubiquitin-like molecule-activating enzyme and contains an adenylation domain and a C-terminal region. This enzyme only exists in multicellular organisms. The mechanism through which the enzyme recognizes and activates ubiquitin-fold modifier 1 (Ufm1) remains unknown. In this study, Uba5 adenylation domains with different C-terminal region lengths were cloned, expressed and purified. The results of an in vitro truncation assay suggest that Uba5 residues 57-363 comprise the minimal fragment required for the high-efficiency activation of Ufm1. Crystallization of Uba5 residues 57-363 was performed at 277?K using PEG 3350 as the precipitant, and crystals optimized by microseeding diffracted to 2.95?Å resolution, with unit-cell parameters a=b=97.66, c=144.83?Å, ?=?=90, ?=120°. There is one molecule in the asymmetric unit; the Matthews coefficient and the solvent content were calculated to be 2.93?Å3?Da(-1) and 58.1%, respectively.

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 Enpp1.

Project description:Enpp1 is an extracellular membrane-bound glycoprotein that regulates bone mineralization by hydrolyzing ATP to generate pyrophosphate. The extracellular region of mouse Enpp1 was expressed in HEK293S GnT1(-) cells, purified using the TARGET tag/P20.1-Sepharose system and crystallized. An X-ray diffraction data set was collected to 3.0?Å resolution. The crystal belonged to space group P3(1), with unit-cell parameters a = b = 105.3, c = 173.7?Å. A single-wavelength anomalous dispersion (SAD) data set was also collected to 2.7?Å resolution using a selenomethionine-labelled crystal. The experimental phases determined by the SAD method produced an interpretable electron-density map.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of human quinolinate phosphoribosyltransferase.

Project description:Quinolinate phosphoribosyltransferase (QPRTase) is a key NAD-biosynthetic enzyme which catalyzes the transfer of quinolinic acid to 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate, yielding nicotinic acid mononucleotide. Homo sapiens QPRTase (Hs-QPRTase) appeared as a hexamer during purification and the protein was crystallized. Diffraction data were collected and processed at 2.8 Å resolution. Native Hs-QPRTase crystals belonged to space group P2(1), with unit-cell parameters a=76.2, b=137.1, c=92.7 Å, β=103.8°. Assuming the presence of six molecules in the asymmetric unit, the calculated Matthews coefficient is 2.46 Å3 Da(-1), which corresponds to a solvent content of 49.9%.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of Sulfolobus solfataricus thioredoxin reductase.

Project description:A thermostable thioredoxin reductase isolated from Sulfolobus solfataricus (SsTrxR) has been successfully crystallized in the absence and in the presence of NADP. Two different crystal forms have been obtained. Crystals of the form that yields higher resolution data (1.8 A) belong to space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 76.77, b = 120.68, c = 126.85 A. The structure of the enzyme has been solved by MAD methods using the anomalous signal from the Se atoms of selenomethionine-labelled SsTrxR.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of a bacterial Asn-transamidosome.

Project description:Most canonical aminoacyl-tRNAs are synthesized directly by their cognate aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRSs), but glutaminyl-tRNA(Gln) and asparaginyl-tRNA(Asn) are synthesized indirectly by two-step processes. These processes are catalyzed by the transamidosome, a large ribonucleoprotein particle composed of GatA, GatB, GatC, aaRS and tRNA. In this study, the Asn-transamidosome from Pseudomonas aeruginosa was reconstructed and crystallized by mixing purified GatCAB complex, AspRS and tRNA(Asn). The crystal of the Asn-transamidosome belonged to space group P2?, with unit-cell parameters a=93.3, b=186.0, c=287.8?Å, ?=93.3°, and diffracted to 3.73?Å resolution. Preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis showed that the asymmetric unit contained two Asn-transamidosomes, each composed of two GatCABs, one AspRS dimer and two tRNAAsns, indicating that the construction of the current Asn-transamidosome differs from that of Thermus thermophilus.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic studies of DnaJ from Streptococcus pneumoniae.

Project description:DnaJ, cooperating with DnaK and GrpE, promotes the folding of unfolded hydrophobic polypeptides, dissociates protein complexes and translocates protein across membranes. Additionally, DnaJ from Streptococcus pneumoniae (SpDnaJ) is involved in the infectious disease process and is being developed as a potential vaccine to prevent bacterial infection. Here the expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of SpDnaJ are reported. The crystals belong to space groups I222 or I2?2?2? and the diffraction resolution is 3.0?Å with unit-cell parameters a=47.68, b=104.45, c=234.57?Å. The crystal most likely contains one molecule in the asymmetric unit, with a VM value of 3.24?Å3?Da(-1) and a solvent content of 62.1%.
