Cloning, expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray studies of a pyridoxine 5'-phosphate oxidase from Mycobacterium smegmatis.

ABSTRACT: Pyridoxine 5'-phosphate oxidases (PNPOxs) are known to catalyse the terminal step in pyridoxal 5'-phosphate biosynthesis in a flavin mononucleotide-dependent manner in humans and Escherichia coli. Recent reports of a putative PNPOx from Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Rv1155, suggest that the cofactor or catalytic mechanism may differ in Mycobacterium species. To investigate this, a putative PNPOx from M. smegmatis, Msmeg_3380, has been cloned. This enzyme has been recombinantly expressed in E. coli and purified to homogeneity. Good-quality crystals of selenomethionine-substituted Msmeg_3380 were obtained by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion technique and diffracted to 1.2 A using synchrotron radiation.

HisB from Mycobacterium tuberculosis: cloning, overexpression in Mycobacterium smegmatis, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis.

Project description:HisB, encoded by open reading frame Rv1601, possesses enzymatic activity as an imidazoleglycerol-phosphate dehydratase in the histidine-biosynthetic pathway of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. A recombinant form of HisB was crystallized in three crystal forms: crystals grown using 20% PEG 1500 as a precipitant belonged to either the cubic space group P432 or the tetragonal space group P4, while an orthorhombic crystal form belonging to space group P2(1)2(1)2 was obtained using 15% PEG 5000 and 10 mM MnCl(2) as precipitant. The structure of HisB in the orthorhombic crystal form was solved by the molecular-replacement method using the crystal structure of its Arabidopsis thaliana counterpart, which shares 47% sequence identity with Rv1601, as the search model.

Project description:The mannose-binding lectin domain of MSMEG_3662 from Mycobacterium smegmatis has been cloned, expressed, purified and crystallized and the crystals have been characterized using X-ray diffraction. The Matthews coefficient suggests the possibility of two lectin domains in the triclinic cell. The amino-acid sequence of the domain indicates structural similarity to well characterized ?-prism II fold lectins.

Molecular cloning, overexpression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction studies of histidinol phosphate aminotransferase (HisC2) from Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Project description:HisC2 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis was overexpressed in M. smegmatis and purified to homogeneity using nickel-nitrilotriacetic acid metal-affinity and gel-filtration chromatography. Diffraction-quality crystals were grown using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion technique from a condition consisting of 7 mg ml(-1) HisC2 (in 20 mM Tris pH 8.8, 50 mM NaCl and 5% glycerol), 1 M succinic acid pH 7.0, 0.1 M HEPES pH 7.0 and 1%(w/v) polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether 2000. The crystals belonged to the orthorhombic space group P2(1)2(1)2, with unit-cell parameters a = 255.98, b=77.09, c = 117.97 Å. X-ray diffraction data were recorded to 2.45 Å resolution from a single crystal using the in-house X-ray facility.

Cloning, expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of MsDpo4: a Y-family DNA polymerase from Mycobacterium smegmatis.

Project description:The expression of error-prone DNA polymerases belonging to the Y-family is upregulated in prokaryotes under adverse conditions to facilitate adaptive mutagenesis. However, it has been suggested that representatives of this family in mycobacteria do not participate in adaptive mutagenesis. These studies raise the possibility that mycobacterial representatives might be devoid of biochemical activity. In order to determine whether this possible loss of activity is a consequence of significant changes in the structure of these enzymes, structural studies on a representative enzyme from Mycobacterium smegmatis, MsDpo4, were initiated. The protein crystallized in space group P6(1)22 or P6(5)22. The Matthews coefficient was 4.0 Å3 Da(-1) assuming the presence of one molecule in the asymmetric unit; the corresponding solvent content was 69%. X-ray diffraction data were collected to a minimum Bragg spacing of 2.6 Å and crystals of selenomethionine-labelled MsDpo4 have been prepared for ab initio phasing.

Cloning, expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of bacterioferritin A from Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Project description:Bacterioferritins (Bfrs) comprise a subfamily of the ferritin superfamily of proteins that play an important role in bacterial iron storage and homeostasis. Bacterioferritins differ from ferritins in that they have additional noncovalently bound haem groups. To assess the physiological role of this subfamily of ferritins, a greater understanding of the structural details of bacterioferritins from various sources is required. The gene encoding bacterioferritin A (BfrA) from Mycobacterium tuberculosis was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant protein product was purified by affinity chromatography on a Strep-Tactin column and crystallized with sodium chloride as a precipitant at pH 8.0 using the vapour-diffusion technique. The crystals diffracted to 2.1 A resolution and belonged to space group P4(2), with unit-cell parameters a = 123.0, b = 123.0, c = 174.6 A.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of pyridoxine 4-oxidase, the first enzyme in pyridoxine degradation pathway I.

Project description:Vitamin B(6)-degradation pathway I has recently been identified in Mesorhizobium loti MAFF303099. Pyridoxine 4-oxidase, an FAD-dependent enzyme, is the first enzyme in this pathway and catalyzes the irreversible oxidation of pyridoxine to pyridoxal. The enzyme was overexpressed in Escherichia coli with a His(6) tag and purified. The recombinant enzyme was crystallized at 277 K by the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method using PEG 4000 as the precipitant. The crystal, which belonged to space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) with unit-cell parameters a = 62.38, b = 79.44, c = 136.43 Å, diffracted to 2.2 Å resolution. The calculated V(M) value (3.19 Å(3) Da(-1)) suggested that the asymmetric unit contained one molecule.

Cloning, expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray studies of a secreted lectin (Rv1419) from Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Project description:A secreted lectin, Rv1419, from Mycobacterium tuberculosis has been cloned, expressed, purified and crystallized and the crystals have been characterized. This represents the first X-ray investigation of a lectin or lectin-like molecule from the pathogen. The cubic crystals contain one molecule in the asymmetric unit. Sequence comparisons indicate that the lectin has a ?-trefoil fold and belongs to a well characterized family of carbohydrate-binding modules. Structural analysis of the crystals is in progress.
