Cloning, expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of the small subunit of isopropylmalate isomerase (Rv2987c) from Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

ABSTRACT: Two C-terminally truncated variants of the small subunit of Mycobacterium tuberculosis isopropylmalate isomerase (Rv2987c; LeuD), LeuD_1-156 and LeuD_1-168, have been cloned, heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli, purified using standard chromatographic techniques and crystallized. The crystals of LeuD_1-156 belonged to the hexagonal system (space group P6(1)22 or P6(5)22) with up to four subunits in the asymmetric unit, whereas the crystals of LeuD_1-168 belonged to the monoclinic system (space group P2(1)) with two subunits in the asymmetric unit. Both crystals diffracted X-rays to beyond 2.0 A resolution and were suitable for further crystallographic analysis.

Cloning, overexpression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of Rv0241c (HtdX) from Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv.

Project description:Rv0241c (HtdX) is a putative (3R)-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydratase of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The htdX gene belongs to a conserved operon and is expressed in mycobacteria in the presence of several fatty-acid synthase II drugs. To elucidate the structure of HtdX, the protein was cloned, overexpressed, purified to homogeneity and crystallized. The protein was crystallized from two conditions: (i) 3 M sodium chloride, 0.1 M Na HEPES pH 8.0 and (ii) 2.5 M sodium chloride, 0.1 M Tris-HCl pH 8.5. A complete diffraction data set was collected from crystals from both conditions. The crystal from the first condition diffracted to 2.3 Å resolution and belonged to space group I41, with unit-cell parameters a=b=61.51, c=143.81 Å. Crystals from the second condition diffracted to 3.1 Å resolution and belonged to space group P4₃2₁2 or P4₁2₁2, with unit-cell parameters a=b=63.67, c=140.88 Å. Both crystals contained one molecule in the asymmetric unit.

Expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of Bifidobacterium adolescentis xylose isomerase.

Project description:Xylose isomerase (EC 5.3.1.5) is a key enzyme in xylose metabolism which is industrially important for the transformation of glucose and xylose into fructose and xylulose, respectively. The Bifidobacterium adolescentis xylA gene (NC_008618.1) encoding xylose isomerase (XI) was cloned and the enzyme was overexpressed in Escherichia coli. Purified recombinant XI was crystallized using the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method with polyethylene glycol 3350 as the precipitating agent. A complete native data set was collected to 1.7?Å resolution using a synchrotron-radiation source. The crystals belonged to the orthorhombic space group P21212, with unit-cell parameters a = 88.78, b = 123.98, c = 78.63?Å.

Cloning, expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of tetrahydrodipicolinate-N-succinyltransferase (Rv1201c) from Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Project description:Tetrahydrodipicolinate-N-succinyltransferase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (DapD, Rv1201c) has been cloned, heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli, purified using standard chromatographic techniques and crystallized in the cubic space group I23 or I2(1)3. Preliminary diffraction data analysis indicates the presence of five molecules per asymmetric unit. Furthermore, the data exhibit icosahedral point-group symmetry. One possible explanation for this is that the enzyme assembles into a 60-mer exhibiting 235 point-group symmetry and crystallizes as such in space group I23. In this case, the combination of crystallographic and noncrystallographic symmetry elements results in an arrangement of the icosahedrons in the cubic crystal with one pentamer in the asymmetric unit. Another explanation is that the packing of the molecules itself mimics icosahedral symmetry. In this case both space groups I23 and I2(1)3 would be possible.

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.

Project description:Succinyl-diaminopimelate desuccinylase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (DapE, Rv1202) has been cloned, heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli and purified using standard chromatographic techniques. Diffraction-quality crystals were obtained at acidic pH from ammonium sulfate and PEG and diffraction data were collected from two crystals to resolutions of 2.40 and 2.58 Å, respectively. The crystals belonged to the monoclinic space group P2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 79.7, b = 76.0, c = 82.9 Å, β = 119°. The most probable content of the asymmetric unit was two molecules of DapE, which would correspond to a solvent content of 56%. Both examined crystals turned out to be pseudo-merohedrally twinned, with twin operator -h, -k, h + l and twin fractions of approximately 0.46 and 0.16, respectively.

Cloning, expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of recombinant human fumarase.

Project description:Human fumarase (HsFH) is a well-known citric acid cycle enzyme and is therefore a key component in energy metabolism. Genetic studies on human patients have shown that polymorphisms in the fumarase gene are responsible for diseases such as hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer. As a first step in unravelling the molecular basis of the mechanism of fumarase deficiency in genetic disorders, the HsFH gene was cloned in pET-28a, heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli, purified by nickel-affinity chromatography and crystallized using the vapour-diffusion technique. X-ray diffraction experiments were performed at a synchrotron source and the structure was solved at 2.1?Å resolution by molecular replacement.

Cloning, expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of the regulatory domain of aspartokinase (Rv3709c) from Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Project description:The regulatory domain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis aspartokinase (Mtb-AK, Mtb-Ask, Rv3709c) has been cloned, heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli and purified using standard chromatographic techniques. Screening for initial crystallization conditions using the regulatory domain (AK-?) in the presence of the potential feedback inhibitor threonine identified four conditions which yielded crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction analysis. From these four conditions five different crystal forms of Mtb-AK-? resulted, three of which belonged to the orthorhombic system, one to the tetragonal system and one to the monoclinic system. The highest resolution (1.6?Å) was observed for a crystal form belonging to space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit-cell parameters a=53.70, b=63.43, c=108.85?Å and two molecules per asymmetric unit.

Protein purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of L-arabinose isomerase from Lactobacillus fermentum CGMCC2921.

Project description:L-Arabinose isomerase (AI) catalyzes the isomerization of L-arabinose to L-ribulose, as well as that of D-galactose to D-tagatose. A thermophilic AI derived from Lactobacillus fermentum CGMCC2921 (LFAI) was overexpressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3). This enzyme was purified to over 95% purity by nickel affinity, Mono-Q ion-exchange and size-exclusion chromatography. The LFAI protein was crystallized from either 0.1?M bis-tris pH 6.5, 23% PEG 3350, 0.3?M NaCl (form 1 crystals) or 0.1?M bis-tris pH 6.0, 25% PEG monomethyl ether 5000 (form 2 crystals). Diffraction data from form 1 LFAI crystals were collected to 2.80?Å resolution using synchrotron radiation. The form 1 crystals belonged to the orthorhombic space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit-cell parameters a=85.11, b=184.57, c=186.26?Å, ?=?=?=90°. The asymmetric unit contained six LFAI subunits, corresponding to a calculated Matthews coefficient of 2.29?Å3?Da(-1) and a solvent content of 46.22%.
