Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic study of the human MST2 SARAH domain.

ABSTRACT: The SARAH domain at the C-terminus of human MST2 (residues 436-484) was overproduced and purified using an Escherichia coli expression system. The purified domain was crystallized using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion technique. Two crystal forms were obtained. The crystals belonged to space group P2, with unit-cell parameters a = 62.0, b = 119.2, c = 62.0 Å, ? = 90.0, ? = 90.5, ? = 90.0°, or to space group P6(1)22, with unit-cell parameters a = 54.5, b = 54.5, c = 303.1 Å. These crystals diffracted to 2.7 and 3.0 Å resolution, respectively.

SARAH Domain-Mediated MST2-RASSF Dimeric Interactions.

Project description:RASSF enzymes act as key apoptosis activators and tumor suppressors, being downregulated in many human cancers, although their exact regulatory roles remain unknown. A key downstream event in the RASSF pathway is the regulation of MST kinases, which are main effectors of RASSF-induced apoptosis. The regulation of MST1/2 includes both homo- and heterodimerization, mediated by helical SARAH domains, though the underlying molecular interaction mechanism is unclear. Here, we study the interactions between RASSF1A, RASSF5, and MST2 SARAH domains by using both atomistic molecular simulation techniques and experiments. We construct and study models of MST2 homodimers and MST2-RASSF SARAH heterodimers, and we identify the factors that control their high molecular stability. In addition, we also analyze both computationally and experimentally the interactions of MST2 SARAH domains with a series of synthetic peptides particularly designed to bind to it, and hope that our approach can be used to address some of the challenging problems in designing new anti-cancer drugs.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic studies of the PYD domain of human NALP3.

Project description:The NALP3 inflammasome is a macromolecular complex that is responsible for the innate immune response against infection by bacterial and viral pathogens. The NALP3 inflammasome is composed of three protein components: NALP3, ASC and caspase 1. Interaction between NALP3 and ASC via PYD domains is critical for the assembly of the NALP3 inflammasome. In this study, human NALP3 PYD, corresponding to amino acids 3-110, was overexpressed in Escherichia coli using engineered C-terminal His tags. NALP3 PYD was then purified to homogeneity and crystallized at 293 K. Finally, X-ray diffraction data were collected to a resolution of 1.7 Å from a crystal belonging to the primitive monoclinic space group P2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 42.03, b = 60.14, c = 51.61 Å, ? = 107.40°.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of the human kindlin-2 PH domain.

Project description:Kindlins contribute to the correct assembly of integrin-containing focal adhesion sites through their direct interaction with the cytoplasmic tail of ?-integrin. The FERM domain of kindlins has a unique subdomain organization: the F2 subdomain harbours a centrally located pleckstrin homology (PH) domain that is thought to be involved in the membrane targeting of kindlins. FERM domains are found in a number of cytoskeletal proteins that mediate the interaction between integrins and cytosolic proteins. In the present study, the PH domain of human kindlin-2 was subcloned, solubly expressed in Escherichia coli and crystallized using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. A diffraction data set was collected at 2.8?Å resolution using synchrotron radiation on BL-4A at the Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (Pohang, Republic of Korea).

Cloning, expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction crystallographic study of human synaptotagmin 5 C2A domain.

Project description:Synaptotagmin acts as the Ca(2+) sensor for neural and endocrine exocytosis. Synaptotagmin 5 has been demonstrated to play a key role in the acquisition of cathepsin D and the vesicular proton ATPase and in Ca(2+)-dependent insulin exocytosis. The C2 domains modulate the interaction of synaptotagmin with the phospholipid bilayer of the presynaptic terminus and effector proteins such as the SNARE complex. This study reports the cloning, expression in Escherichia coli, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of the C2A domain of human synaptotagmin 5 with an N-terminal His(6) tag. The crystals diffracted to 1.90 Å resolution and belonged to the hexagonal space group P6(5), with unit-cell parameters a = b = 93.97, c = 28.05 Å. A preliminary model of the protein structure has been built and refinement of the model is ongoing.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of the human CKIP-1 pleckstrin homology domain.

Project description:The casein kinase 2 interacting protein-1 (CKIP-1) is involved in many cellular functions, including apoptosis, signalling pathways, cell growth, cytoskeleton and bone formation. Its N-terminal pleckstrin homology (PH) domain is thought to play an important role in membrane localization and controls shuttling of CKIP-1 between the plasma membrane and nucleus. In this study, the human CKIP-1 PH domain was purified but problems were encountered with nucleic acid contamination. An S84D/S86D/S88D triple mutant designed to abolish nucleic acid binding was purified and successfully crystallized. Single crystals diffracted to 1.7?Å resolution and belonged to space group P4?2?2 with unit-cell parameters a=53.0, b=53.0, c=113.8?Å, ?=?=?=90.0°.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of the PH-GRAM domain of human MTMR4.

Project description:Phosphoinositide lipid molecules play critical roles in intracellular signalling pathways and are regulated by phospholipases, lipid kinases and phosphatases. In particular, phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate and phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate are related to endosomal trafficking events through the recruitment of effector proteins and are involved in the degradation step of autophagy. Myotubularin-related proteins (MTMRs) are a large family of phosphatases that catalyze the dephosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate and phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate at the D3 position, thereby regulating cellular phosphoinositide levels. In this study, the PH-GRAM domain of human MTMR4 was cloned, overexpressed in Escherichia coli, purified and crystallized by the vapour-diffusion method. The crystals diffracted to 3.20?Å resolution at a synchrotron beamline and belonged to either space group P61 or P65, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 109.10, c = 238.97?Å.

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°.

Purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic studies of Drep2 CIDE domain.

Project description:Drep2 is a novel nuclease from the fruit fly that might have a similar function in apoptosis to DFF40 and DFF45, which are primary players in apoptotic DNA fragmentation. Drep2 contains a conserved CIDE domain of ∼90 amino-acid residues that is involved in protein-protein interaction. In this study, the Drep2 CIDE domain was purified and crystallized by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. X-ray diffraction data were then collected to a resolution of 2.3 Å. The crystals were found to belong to the orthorhombic space group P212121, with unit-cell parameters a = 50.28, b = 88.70, c = 113.37 Å.
