Expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of the L,D-transpeptidase LdtMt1 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

ABSTRACT: Mycobacterium tuberculosis is capable of adapting to prolonged periods of dormancy, a state which is resistant to killing by antimycobacterial agents. The L,D-transpeptidation reaction catalysed by the L,D-transpeptidase LdtMt1 is likely to play an essential role in the adaptation of M. tuberculosis to its dormant state. LdtMt1 has been successfully crystallized using vapour-diffusion methods. The crystals of this protein belonged to space group P6?22, with unit-cell parameters a=57.25, b=57.25, c=257.96?Å, ?=90, ?=90, ?=120°. Diffraction data have also been collected from a selenomethionine derivative to 2.9?Å resolution. Model building using the phases derived from the multiwavelength anomalous dispersion experiment is in progress.

Cloning, expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of bacterioferritin A from Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Project description:Bacterioferritins (Bfrs) comprise a subfamily of the ferritin superfamily of proteins that play an important role in bacterial iron storage and homeostasis. Bacterioferritins differ from ferritins in that they have additional noncovalently bound haem groups. To assess the physiological role of this subfamily of ferritins, a greater understanding of the structural details of bacterioferritins from various sources is required. The gene encoding bacterioferritin A (BfrA) from Mycobacterium tuberculosis was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant protein product was purified by affinity chromatography on a Strep-Tactin column and crystallized with sodium chloride as a precipitant at pH 8.0 using the vapour-diffusion technique. The crystals diffracted to 2.1 A resolution and belonged to space group P4(2), with unit-cell parameters a = 123.0, b = 123.0, c = 174.6 A.

Expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of a resuscitation-promoting factor from Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Project description:The resuscitation-promoting factor RpfB, the most complex of the five resuscitation-promoting factors produced by M. tuberculosis, is devoted to bacterial reactivation from the dormant state. RpfB consists of 362 residues predicted to form five domains. An RpfB fragment containing the protein catalytic domain and a G5 domain has been successfully crystallized using vapour-diffusion methods. This is the first crystallographic study of a resuscitation-promoting factor. Crystals of this protein belong to space group I422, with unit-cell parameters a = 97.63, b = 97.63, c = 114.87 A. Diffraction data have also been collected from a selenomethionine derivative at 2.9 A resolution. Model building using the phases derived from the multiwavelength anomalous dispersion experiment is in progress.

Purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic studies of Rv3899c from Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Project description:Rv3899c, a hypothetical protein from Mycobacterium tuberculosis that is conserved within the mycobacteria, is predicted to be secreted and has been found in culture filtrates. Here, Rv3899c has been cloned, expressed in Escherichia coli and purified using standard chromatographic techniques. The hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method with PEG 3350 as a precipitant was used to crystallize the protein. N-terminal sequencing results showed that the amino-acid sequence of the crystallized protein began with GATAG, indicating that it is a fragment containing residues 184-410 of Rv3899c. Rv3899c184-410 crystals exhibited the symmetry of space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit-cell parameters a=49.88, b=54.72, c=75.52?Å, ?=?=?=90°, and diffracted to a resolution of 1.90?Å.

HisB from Mycobacterium tuberculosis: cloning, overexpression in Mycobacterium smegmatis, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis.

Project description:HisB, encoded by open reading frame Rv1601, possesses enzymatic activity as an imidazoleglycerol-phosphate dehydratase in the histidine-biosynthetic pathway of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. A recombinant form of HisB was crystallized in three crystal forms: crystals grown using 20% PEG 1500 as a precipitant belonged to either the cubic space group P432 or the tetragonal space group P4, while an orthorhombic crystal form belonging to space group P2(1)2(1)2 was obtained using 15% PEG 5000 and 10 mM MnCl(2) as precipitant. The structure of HisB in the orthorhombic crystal form was solved by the molecular-replacement method using the crystal structure of its Arabidopsis thaliana counterpart, which shares 47% sequence identity with Rv1601, as the search model.

Purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic studies of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA gyrase CTD.

Project description:Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA gyrase, a nanomachine involved in regulation of DNA topology, is the only type II topoisomerase present in this organism and hence is the sole target of fluoroquinolone in the treatment of tuberculosis. The C-terminal domain (CTD) of the DNA gyrase A subunit possesses a unique feature, the ability to wrap DNA in a chiral manner, that plays an essential role during the catalytic cycle. A construct of 36 kDa corresponding to this domain has been overproduced, purified and crystallized. Diffraction data were collected to 1.55 Å resolution. Cleavage of the N-terminal His tag was crucial for obtaining crystals. The crystals belonged to space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with one molecule in the asymmetric unit and a low solvent content (33%). This is the first report of the crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction studies of a DNA gyrase CTD from a species that contains one unique type II topoisomerase.

Expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of Enpp6.

Project description:Enpp (ectonucleotide phosphodiesterase/pyrophosphatase) 6 is a membrane-bound glycoprotein that hydrolyzes choline-containing compounds such as lysophosphatidylcholine and glycerophosphorylcholine, and presumably participates in choline metabolism. The catalytic domain of mouse Enpp6 was expressed in HEK293T cells, purified using the TARGET tag/P20.1-Sepharose system and crystallized. An X-ray diffraction data set was collected to 1.8?Å resolution. The crystal belonged to space group P1, with unit-cell parameters a=63.7, b=68.8, c=69.7?Å, ?=60.6, ?=87.0, ?=68.1°. Assuming the presence of two protein molecules per asymmetric unit, the solvent content was estimated to be 49.5%.

A single-wavelength anomalous dispersion (SAD) data set was also collected to 2.7?Å resolution using a selenomethionine-labelled crystal. The experimental phases determined by the SAD method produced an interpretable electron-density map.

Cloning, expression, purification, crystallization and X-ray crystallographic analysis of Rv2606c from Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv.

Project description:Tuberculosis is a widespread and deadly infectious disease, and one third of the human population is already infected. Vitamin B6 is known to be synthesized through consecutive reactions mediated by pyridoxal biosynthesis lyase (PdxS) and glutamine amidotransferase (PdxT). The gene product Rv2606c, the PdxS pyridoxal biosynthesis lyase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis, was crystallized using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method in the presence of 8%(w/v) PEG 8000, 0.1?M 3-(cyclohexylamino)-1-propanesulfonic acid pH 10.5 and 0.2?M sodium chloride at 295?K. X-ray diffraction data were collected to a maximum resolution of 1.7?Å on a synchrotron beamline. The crystal belonged to space group I222 or I212121, with unit-cell parameters a = 110.75, b = 126.08, c = 180.82?Å, ? = ? = ? = 90°. With three molecules per asymmetric unit, the crystal volume per unit protein weight (VM) was 3.79?Å(3)?Da(-1).
