Crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of Aspergillus oryzae catechol oxidase.

ABSTRACT: Catechol oxidase is an enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of o-diphenols to the corresponding o-quinones. It is a copper-containing enzyme with a binuclear copper active site. Here, the crystallization and multiple-wavelength anomalous dispersion data collection of catechol oxidase from the mould fungus Aspergillus oryzae are described. During the purification, three forms of the enzyme (39.3, 40.5 and 44.3?kDa) were obtained. A mixture of these three forms was initially crystallized and gave crystals that diffracted to 2.5?Å resolution and belonged to space group P3(2)21, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 118.9, c = 84.5?Å, ? = ? = 90, ? = 120°. A preparation containing only the shorter form (39.3?kDa) produced crystals that diffracted to 2.9?Å resolution and belonged to space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 51.8, b = 95.3, c = 139.5?Å, ? = ? = ? = 90°.

Cloning, expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of variants of monoamine oxidase from Aspergillus niger.

Project description:Monoamine oxidase from Aspergillus niger (MAO-N) is an FAD-dependent enzyme that catalyses the conversion of terminal amines to their corresponding aldehydes. Variants of MAO-N produced by directed evolution have been shown to possess altered substrate specificity. Crystals of two of these variants (MAO-N-3 and MAO-N-5) have been obtained; the former displays P2(1) symmetry with eight molecules per asymmetric unit and the latter has P4(1)2(1)2 or P4(3)2(1)2 symmetry and two molecules per asymmetric unit. Solution of these structures will help shed light on the molecular determinants of improved activity and high enantioselectivity towards a broad range of substrates.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of ?-ketoacyl-ACP synthase I (XoFabB) from Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae.

Project description:The proteins in the fatty-acid synthesis pathway in bacteria have significant potential as targets for the development of antibacterial agents. An essential elongation step in fatty-acid synthesis is performed by ?-ketoacyl-acyl carrier protein synthase I (FabB). The organism Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) causes a destructive bacterial blight disease of rice. The XoFabB protein from Xoo was expressed, purified and crystallized for the three-dimensional structure determination that is essential for the development of specific inhibitors of the enzyme. An XoFabB crystal diffracted to 3.0 Å resolution and belonged to the tetragonal space group P4(1), with unit-cell parameters a = b = 82.2, c = 233.2 Å. Assuming that the crystallographic structure contains four molecules in the asymmetric unit, the corresponding V(M) would be 2.18 Å(3) Da(-1) and the solvent content would be 43.5%. The initial structure was determined by the MOLREP program with an R factor of 44.0% and does contain four monomers in the asymmetric unit.

Cloning, expression, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of glutamyl-tRNA synthetase (Xoo1504) from Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae.

Project description:The gltX gene from Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo1504) encodes glutamyl-tRNA synthetase (GluRS), one of the most important enzymes involved in bacterial blight (BB), which causes huge production losses of rice worldwide. GluRS is a class I-type aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase (aaRS) that is primarily responsible for the glutamylation of tRNA(Glu). It plays an essential role in protein synthesis, as well as the regulation of cells, in all organisms. As it represents an important target for the development of new antibacterial drugs against BB, determination of the three-dimensional structure of GluRS is essential in order to understand its catalytic mechanism. In order to analyze its structure and function, the gltX gene was cloned and the GluRS enzyme was expressed, purified and then crystallized. A GluRS crystal belonging to the monoclinic space group C2 diffracted to 2.8 A resolution and had unit-cell parameters a = 186.8, b = 108.4, c = 166.1 A, beta = 96.3 degrees . The unit-cell volume of the crystal allowed the presence of six to eight monomers in the asymmetric unit, with a corresponding Matthews coefficient (V(M)) range of 2.70-2.02 A(3) Da(-1) and a solvent-content range of 54.5-39.3%.

Cloning, expression, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of the co-chaperonin XoGroES from Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae.

Project description:Bacterial blight (BB), a devastating disease caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), causes serious production losses of rice in Asian countries. Protein misfolding may interfere with the function of proteins in all living cells and must be prevented to avoid cellular disaster. All cells naturally contain molecular chaperones that assist the unfolded proteins in folding into the native structure. One of the well characterized chaperone complexes is GroEL-GroES. GroEL, which consists of two chambers, captures misfolded proteins and refolds them. GroES is a co-chaperonin protein that assists the GroEL protein as a lid that temporarily closes the chamber during the folding process. Xoo4289, the GroES gene from Xoo, was cloned and expressed for X-ray crystallographic study. The purified protein (XoGroES) was crystallized using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method and a crystal diffracted to 2.0 Å resolution. The crystal belonged to the hexagonal space group P6(1), with unit-cell parameters a=64.4, c=36.5 Å. The crystal contains a single molecule in the asymmetric unit, with a corresponding VM of 2.05 Å3 Da(-1) and a solvent content of 39.9%.
