Crystallization and preliminary X-ray structure analysis of human ribosomal protein L30e.

ABSTRACT: Many functions have been reported for the eukaryotic ribosomal protein L30e. L30e makes several inter-subunit and intra-subunit interactions with protein or RNA components of the 80S ribosome. Yeast L30e has been shown to bind to its own transcript to autoregulate expression at both the transcriptional and the translational levels. Furthermore, it has been reported that mammalian L30e is a component of the selenocysteine-incorporation machinery by binding to the selenocysteine-insertion sequence on mRNA. As high-resolution crystal structures of mammalian L30e are not available, the purification, crystallization and X-ray structure analysis of human L30e are presented here.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic studies of the N-terminal domain of human ribosomal protein L7a (RPL7a).

Project description:Ribosomal proteins are a major component of ribosomes, which catalyze protein synthesis. One ribosomal protein, L7a (RPL7a), which is a component of the 60S large ribosomal subunit, has additional functions involved in cell growth and differentiation that occur via interaction with human thyroid hormone receptor (THR) and retinoic acid receptor (RAR) and in turn inhibit the activities of the two nuclear hormone receptors. In this study, the N-terminal domain of human RPL7a was overexpressed in Escherichia coli using an engineered C-terminal His tag. The N-terminal domain of human RPL7a was then purified to homogeneity and crystallized at 293?K. X-ray diffraction data were collected to a resolution of 3.5?Å from a crystal belonging to the tetragonal space group P4(1)22 or P4(3)22 with unit-cell parameters a = 92.28, b = 92.28, c = 236.59?Å.

In this study, human MTMR1 was overexpressed in Escherichia coli, purified and crystallized at 277?K using polyethylene glycol 20,000 as a precipitant. Diffraction data were collected to 2.0?Å resolution using synchrotron radiation. The crystals belonged to space group P1, with unit-cell parameters a = 67.219, b = 96.587, c = 97.581?Å, ? = 87.597, ? = 86.072, ? = 77.327°. Assuming the presence of four molecules in the asymmetric unit, the calculated Matthews coefficient value was 2.61?Å(3)?Da(-1) and the corresponding solvent content was 52.9%.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of human seminal plasma protein PSP94.

Project description:The human seminal plasma protein PSP94 is a small protein of 94 residues that contains ten cysteines. Since its discovery about 25 years ago, several potential biological functions have been reported for this protein. Many PSP94 homologues have also been identified since then from various species, but no crystal structure has been determined to date. PSP94 has been purified from human seminal plasma and crystallized. These crystals diffracted to approximately 2.3 A resolution and belonged to space group P4(1)2(1)2, with unit-cell parameters a = 107.9, b = 107.9, c = 92.1 A. There are four molecules in the asymmetric unit. Structure solution by the heavy-atom method is currently in progress.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of human Apaf-1-interacting protein.

Project description:Apaf-1-interacting protein (APIP) is known to inhibit two different types of cell death: caspase-1-dependent pyroptosis and caspase-9-dependent apoptosis. APIP is also involved in the methionine-salvage pathway, where it is called 5-methylthioribulose-1-phosphate dehydratase (MtnB). The enzyme activity seems to be essential for inhibition of pyroptosis by APIP, but not for inhibition of apoptosis. In this study, human APIP was overproduced in Escherichia coli, purified and crystallized. An X-ray diffraction data set was collected to 2.40 Å resolution and the crystals belonged to space group C222(1), with unit-cell parameters a=106.61, b=107.50, c=189.76 Å. Given that four APIP molecules exist in the asymmetric unit, the Matthews coefficient is 2.70 Å3 Da(-1) and the corresponding solvent content is 54.4%.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of human S100A13.

Project description:S100A13 is a member of the S100 family of EF-hand-containing calcium-binding proteins and plays an important role in the secretion of fibroblast growth factor-1 and interleukin 1alpha, two pro-angiogenic factors released by the endoplasmic reticulum/Golgi-independent non-classical secretory pathway. Human S100A13 was heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli, purified and crystallized by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method using PEG 3350 as the precipitant. The crystals diffracted X-rays from a synchrotron-radiation source to 1.8 A resolution and the space group was assigned as primitive orthorhombic P2(1)2(1)2(1).

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of the human respiratory syncytial virus nucleocapsid protein.

Project description:Human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV) has a nonsegmented negative-stranded RNA genome which is encapsidated by the HRSV nucleocapsid protein (HRSVN) that is essential for viral replication. HRSV is a common cause of respiratory infection in infants, yet no effective antiviral drugs to combat it are available. Recent data from an experimental anti-HRSV compound, RSV-604, indicate that HRSVN could be the target site for drug action. Here, the expression, purification and preliminary data collection of decameric HRSVN as well as monomeric N-terminally truncated HRSVN mutants are reported. Two different crystal forms of full-length selenomethionine-labelled HRSVN were obtained that diffracted to 3.6 and approximately 5 A resolution and belonged to space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 133.6, b = 149.9, c = 255.1 A, and space group P2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 175.1, b = 162.6, c = 242.8 A, beta = 90.1 degrees , respectively. For unlabelled HRSVN, only crystals belonging to space group P2(1) were obtained that diffracted to 3.6 A. A self-rotation function using data from the orthorhombic crystal form confirmed the presence of tenfold noncrystallographic symmetry, which is in agreement with a reported electron-microscopic reconstruction of HRSVN. Monomeric HRSVN generated by N-terminal truncation was designed to assist in structure determination by reducing the size of the asymmetric unit. Whilst such HRSVN mutants were monomeric in solution and crystallized in a different space group, the size of the asymmetric unit was not reduced.

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 diffraction analysis of the human mismatch repair protein MutS?.

Project description:MutS? is a eukaryotic mismatch repair protein that preferentially targets extrahelical unpaired nucleotides and shares partial functional redundancy with MutS? (MSH2-MSH6). Although mismatch recognition by MutS? has been shown to involve a conserved Phe-X-Glu motif, little is known about the lesion-binding mechanism of MutS?. Combined MSH3/MSH6 deficiency triggers a strong predisposition to cancer in mice and defects in msh2 and msh6 account for roughly half of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer mutations. These three MutS homologs are also believed to play a role in trinucleotide repeat instability, which is a hallmark of many neurodegenerative disorders. The baculovirus overexpression and purification of recombinant human MutS? and three truncation mutants are presented here. Binding assays with heteroduplex DNA were carried out for biochemical characterization. Crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of the protein bound to a heteroduplex DNA substrate are also reported.
