Solution NMR structure of Asl3597 from Nostoc sp. PCC7120, the first structure from protein domain family PF12095, reveals a novel fold.

ABSTRACT: The protein domain family PF12095 (DUF3571) is a functionally uncharacterized family of small proteins conserved from cyanobacteria to plants that are typically 85 to 95 amino acids in length in cyanobacteria. In this report, we describe the solution NMR structure of the 86-residue protein Asl3597 from Nostoc sp. PCC7120. The structure of Asl3597, which constitutes the first three-dimensional structure from protein family PF12095, has a unique ?/? sandwich fold consisting of four anti-parallel ?-strands opposite three continuous ?-helices. Asl3597 may have a role in the assembly of the hydrophilic subcomplex of the cyanobacterial NAD(P)H complex as suggested by data for the orthologous Chlororespiratory reduction 7 protein from Arabidopsis thaliana.

Redox-dependent Ligand Switching in a Sensory Heme-binding GAF Domain of the Cyanobacterium Nostoc sp. PCC7120.

Project description:The genome of the cyanobacterium Nostoc sp. PCC7120 carries three genes (all4978, all7016, and alr7522) encoding putative heme-binding GAF (cGMP-specific phosphodiesterases, adenylyl cyclases, and FhlA) proteins that were annotated as transcriptional regulators. They are composed of an N-terminal cofactor domain and a C-terminal helix-turn-helix motif. All4978 showed the highest affinity for protoheme binding. The heme binding capability of All7016 was moderate, and Alr7522 did not bind heme at all. The "as isolated" form of All4978, identified by Soret band (?max = 427 nm), was assigned by electronic absorption, EPR, and resonance Raman spectroscopy as a hexa-coordinated low spin Fe(III) heme with a distal cysteine ligand (absorption of ?-band around 360 nm). The protoheme cofactor is noncovalently incorporated. Reduction of the heme could be accomplished by chemically using sodium dithionite and electrospectrochemically; this latter method yielded remarkably low midpoint potentials of -445 and -453 mV (following Soret and ?-band absorption changes, respectively). The reduced form of the heme (Fe(II) state) binds both NO and CO. Cysteine coordination of the as isolated Fe(III) protein is unambiguous, but interestingly, the reduced heme instead displays spectral features indicative of histidine coordination. Cys-His ligand switches have been reported as putative signaling mechanisms in other heme-binding proteins; however, these novel cyanobacterial proteins are the first where such a ligand-switch mechanism has been observed in a GAF domain. DNA binding of the helix-turn-helix domain was investigated using a DNA sequence motif from its own promoter region. Formation of a protein-DNA complex preferentially formed in ferric state of the protein.

Time course of nitrogen-responsive transcriptomes in Nostoc sp. PCC7120

Project description:In order to analyze the responses of a heterocystous cyanobacterium to combined-nitrogen depletion/addition, we have used customized microarrays to identify genes potentially involved in heterocysts differentiation by comparing the responses in the control strain and a hetR mutant unable to differentiate heterocysts. RNA samples were isolated from cells growing in the presence of combined nitrogen (ammonium) or after 6, 8, 12 or 24 h of nitrogen deprivation. Additionally, RNA was isolated from cells growing in the absence of combined nitrogen or 8 h after addition of ammonium

Solution NMR structure of Dsy0195 homodimer from Desulfitobacterium hafniense: first structure representative of the YabP domain family of proteins involved in spore coat assembly.

Project description:Protein domain family YabP (PF07873) is a family of small protein domains that are conserved in a wide range of bacteria and involved in spore coat assembly during the process of sporulation. The 62-residue fragment of Dsy0195 from Desulfitobacterium hafniense, which belongs to the YabP family, exists as a homodimer in solution under the conditions used for structure determination using NMR spectroscopy. The structure of the Dsy0195 homodimer contains two identical 62-residue monomeric subunits, each consisting of five anti-parallel beta strands (?1, 23-29; ?2, 31-38; ?3, 41-46; ?4, 49-59; ?5, 69-80). The tertiary structure of the Dsy0195 monomer adopts a cylindrical fold composed of two beta sheets. The two monomer subunits fold into a homodimer about a single C2 symmetry axis, with the interface composed of two anti-parallel beta strands, ?1-?1' and ?5b-?5b', where ?5b refers to the C-terminal half of the bent ?5 strand, without any domain swapping. Potential functional regions of the Dsy0195 structure were predicted based on conserved sequence analysis. The Dsy0195 structure reported here is the first representative structure from the YabP family.

NMR solution structure of the neurotrypsin Kringle domain.

Project description:Neurotrypsin is a multidomain protein that serves as a brain-specific serine protease. Here we report the NMR structure of its kringle domain, NT/K. The data analysis was performed with the BACUS (Bayesian analysis of coupled unassigned spins) algorithm. This study presents the first application of BACUS to the structure determination of a 13C unenriched protein for which no prior experimental 3D structure was available. NT/K adopts the kringle fold, consisting of an antiparallel beta-sheet bridged by an overlapping pair of disulfides. The structure reveals the presence of a surface-exposed left-handed polyproline II helix that is closely packed to the core beta-structure. This feature distinguishes NT/K from other members of the kringle fold and points toward a novel functional role for a kringle domain. Functional divergence among kringle domains is discussed on the basis of their surface and electrostatic characteristics.

Solution NMR structures reveal a distinct architecture and provide first structures for protein domain family PF04536.

Project description:The protein family (Pfam) PF04536 is a broadly conserved domain family of unknown function (DUF477), with more than 1,350 members in prokaryotic and eukaryotic proteins. High-quality NMR structures of the N-terminal domain comprising residues 41-180 of the 684-residue protein CG2496 from Corynebacterium glutamicum and the N-terminal domain comprising residues 35-182 of the 435-residue protein PG0361 from Porphyromonas gingivalis both exhibit an α/β fold comprised of a four-stranded β-sheet, three α-helices packed against one side of the sheet, and a fourth α-helix attached to the other side. In spite of low sequence similarity (18%) assessed by structure-based sequence alignment, the two structures are globally quite similar. However, moderate structural differences are observed for the relative orientation of two of the four helices. Comparison with known protein structures reveals that the α/β architecture of CG2496(41-180) and PG0361(35-182) has previously not been characterized. Moreover, calculation of surface charge potential and identification of surface clefts indicate that the two domains very likely have different functions.

Retinal is formed from apo-carotenoids in Nostoc sp. PCC7120: in vitro characterization of an apo-carotenoid oxygenase.

Project description:The sensory rhodopsin from Anabaena (Nostoc) sp. PCC7120 is the first cyanobacterial retinylidene protein identified. Here, we report on NosACO (Nostoc apo-carotenoid oxygenase), encoded by the ORF (open reading frame) all4284, as the candidate responsible for the formation of the required chromophore, retinal. In contrast with the enzymes from animals, NosACO converts beta-apo-carotenals instead of beta-carotene into retinal in vitro. The identity of the enzymatic products was proven by HPLC and gas chromatography-MS. NosACO exhibits a wide substrate specificity with respect to chain lengths and functional end-groups, converting beta-apo-carotenals, (3R)-3-hydroxy-beta-apo-carotenals and the corresponding alcohols into retinal and (3R)-3-hydroxyretinal respectively. However, kinetic analyses revealed very divergent Km and Vmax values. On the basis of the crystal structure of SynACO (Synechocystis sp. PCC6803 apo-carotenoid oxygenase), a related enzyme showing similar enzymatic activity, we designed a homology model of the native NosACO. The deduced structure explains the absence of beta-carotene-cleavage activity and indicates that NosACO is a monotopic membrane protein. Accordingly, NosACO could be readily reconstituted into liposomes. To localize SynACO in vivo, a Synechocystis knock-out strain was generated expressing SynACO as the sole carotenoid oxygenase. Western-blot analyses showed that the main portion of SynACO occurred in a membrane-bound form.

Solution NMR structure of the helicase associated domain BVU_0683(627-691) from Bacteroides vulgatus provides first structural coverage for protein domain family PF03457 and indicates domain binding to DNA.

Project description:A high-quality NMR structure of the helicase associated (HA) domain comprising residues 627-691 of the 753-residue protein BVU_0683 from Bacteroides vulgatus exhibits an all α-helical fold. The structure presented here is the first representative for the large protein domain family PF03457 (currently 742 members) of HA domains. Comparison with structurally similar proteins supports the hypothesis that HA domains bind to DNA and that binding specificity varies greatly within the family of HA domains constituting PF03457.

Solution NMR structure of CD1104B from pathogenic Clostridium difficile reveals a distinct α-helical architecture and provides first structural representative of protein domain family PF14203.

Project description:A high-quality structure of the 68-residue protein CD1104B from Clostridium difficile strain 630 exhibits a distinct all α-helical fold. The structure presented here is the first representative of bacterial protein domain family PF14203 (currently 180 members) of unknown function (DUF4319) and reveals that the side-chains of the only two strictly conserved residues (Glu 8 and Lys 48) form a salt bridge. Moreover, these two residues are located in the vicinity of the largest surface cleft which is predicted to contribute to a surface area involved in protein-protein interactions. This, along with its coding in transposon CTn4, suggests that CD1104B (and very likely all members of Pfam 14203) functions by interacting with other proteins required for the transfer of transposons between different bacterial species.

NMR solution structure of the activation domain of human procarboxypeptidase A2.

Project description:The activation domain of human procarboxypeptidase A2, ADA2h, is an 81-residue globular domain released during the proteolytic activation of the proenzyme. The role of this and other similar domains as assistants of the correct folding of the enzyme is not fully understood. The folding pathway of ADA2h was characterized previously, and it was also observed that under certain conditions it may convert into amyloid fibrils in vitro. To gain insight into these processes, a detailed description of its three-dimensional structure in aqueous solution is required so that eventual changes could be properly monitored. A complete assignment of the (1)H and (15)N resonances of ADA2h was performed, and the solution structure, as derived from a set of 1688 nonredundant constraints, is very well defined (pairwise backbone RMSD = 0.67 +/- 0.17 A for residues 10-80). The structure is composed of two antiparallel alpha-helices comprising residues 19-32 and 58-69 packed on the same side of a three-stranded beta-sheet spanning residues 10-15, 50-55, and 73-75. The global fold for the isolated human A2 activation domain is very similar to that of porcine carboxypeptidase B, as well as to the structure of the domain in the crystal of the intact human proenzyme. The observed structural differences relative to the intact human proenzyme are located at the interface between the activation domain and the enzyme and can be related with the activation mechanism. The backbone amide proton exchange behavior of ADA2h was also examined. The global free energy of unfolding obtained from exchange data of the most protected amide protons at pH 7.0 and 298K is 4.9 +/- 0.3 kcal.mole(-1), in good agreement with the values determined by thermal or denaturant unfolding studies.
