Expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of carbonyl reductase from Candida parapsilosis ATCC 7330.

ABSTRACT: The NAD(P)H-dependent carbonyl reductase from Candida parapsilosis ATCC 7330 catalyses the asymmetric reduction of ethyl 4-phenyl-2-oxobutanoate to ethyl (R)-4-phenyl-2-hydroxybutanoate, a precursor of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors such as Cilazapril and Benazepril. The carbonyl reductase was expressed in Escherichia coli and purified by GST-affinity and size-exclusion chromatography. Crystals were obtained by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method and diffracted to 1.86?Å resolution. The asymmetric unit contained two molecules of carbonyl reductase, with a solvent content of 48%. The structure was solved by molecular replacement using cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a search model.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of (R)-carbonyl reductase from Candida parapsilosis.

Project description:The NADH-dependent (R)-carbonyl reductase from Candida parapsilosis (RCR) catalyzes the asymmetric reduction of 2-hydroxyacetophenone (HAP) to produce (R)-1-phenyl-1,2-ethanediol [(R)-PED], which is used as a versatile building block for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals. To gain insight into the catalytic mechanism, the structures of complexes of RCR with ligands, including the coenzyme, are important. Here, the recombinant RCR protein was expressed and purified in Escherichia coli and was crystallized in the presence of NAD+. The crystals, which belonged to the orthorhombic space group P2?2?2?, with unit-cell parameters a=85.64, b=106.11, c=145.55?Å, were obtained by the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method and diffracted to 2.15?Å resolution. Initial model building indicates that RCR forms a homotetramer, consistent with previous reports of medium-chain-type alcohol dehydrogenases.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of a carbonyl reductase from Candida parapsilosis.

Project description:A novel short-chain NADPH-dependent (S)-1-phenyl-1,2-ethanediol dehydrogenase (SCR) has been crystallized. Two distinct but related crystal forms of SCR were obtained using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method and a reservoir solution consisting of 18%(w/v) polyethylene glycol 2000 monomethyl ether and 8%(v/v) 2-propanol as the precipitant. The crystals were rhomboid in shape with average dimensions of 0.3 x 0.3 x 0.4 mm and diffracted to a resolution of 2.7-3.0 A. The crystal forms both belong to space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) and have unit-cell parameters a = 104.7, b = 142.8, c = 151.8 A and a = 101.1, b = 146.0, c = 159.8 A. The calculated values of V(M), rotation-function and translation-function solutions and consideration of potential crystal packing suggest that there are eight protein subunits per asymmetric unit.

Expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of conjugated polyketone reductase C2 (CPR-C2) from Candida parapsilosis IFO 0708.

Project description:Conjugated polyketone reductase C2 (CPR-C2) from Candida parapsilosis IFO 0708 is a member of the NADPH-dependent aldo-keto reductase (AKR) superfamily and catalyzes the stereospecific reduction of ketopantoyl lactone to d-pantoyl lactone. A diffraction-quality crystal of recombinant CPR-C2 was obtained by the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method using PEG 3350 as the precipitant. The crystal diffracted X-rays to 1.7 angstrom resolution on beamline NW12A of the Photon Factory-Advanced Ring (Tsukuba, Japan). The crystal belonged to space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 55.02, b = 68.30, c = 68.93 angstrom. The Matthews coefficient (V(M) = 1.76 angstrom(3) Da(-1)) indicated that the crystal contained one CPR-C2 molecule per asymmetric unit.

Purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of xylose reductase from Candida tropicalis.

Project description:Xylose reductase (XR), which requires NADPH as a co-substrate, catalyzes the reduction of D-xylose to xylitol, which is the first step in the metabolism of D-xylose. The detailed three-dimensional structure of XR will provide a better understanding of the biological significance of XR in the efficient production of xylitol from biomass. XR of molecular mass 36.6 kDa from Candida tropicalis was crystallized using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. According to X-ray diffraction data from C. tropicalis XR crystals at 2.91 A resolution, the unit cell belongs to space group P3(1) or P3(2). Preliminary analysis indicated the presence of four XR molecules in the asymmetric unit, with 68.0% solvent content.

Purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of the seryl-tRNA synthetase from Candida albicans.

Project description:The seryl-tRNA synthetase (SerRS) from Candida albicans exists naturally as two isoforms resulting from ambiguity in the natural genetic code. Both enzymes were crystallized by the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method using 3.2-3.4 M ammonium sulfate as precipitant. The crystals belonged to the hexagonal space group P6(1)22 and contained one monomer per asymmetric unit, despite the synthetase existing as a homodimer (with a molecular weight of ∼116 kDa) in solution. Diffraction data were collected to 2.0 Å resolution at a synchrotron source and the crystal structures of unliganded SerRS and of its complexes with ATP and with a seryl-adenylate analogue were solved by molecular replacement. The structure of C. albicans SerRS represents the first reported structure of a eukaryotic cytoplasmic SerRS.

Purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction of human S100A15.

Project description:Human S100A15 is a novel member of the S100 family of EF-hand calcium-binding proteins and was recently identified in psoriasis, where it is significantly upregulated in lesional skin. The protein is implicated as an effector in calcium-mediated signal transduction pathways. Although its biological function is unclear, the association of the 11.2 kDa S100A15 with psoriasis suggests that it contributes to the pathogenesis of the disease and could provide a molecular target for therapy. To provide insight into the function of S100A15, the protein was crystallized to visualize its structure and to further the understanding of how the many similar calcium-binding mediator proteins in the cell distinguish their cognate target molecules. The S100A15 protein has been cloned, expressed and purified to homogeneity and produced two crystal forms. Crystals of form I are triclinic, with unit-cell parameters a = 33.5, b = 44.3, c = 44.8 angstroms, alpha = 71.2, beta = 68.1, gamma = 67.8 degrees and an estimated two molecules in the asymmetric unit, and diffract to 1.7 angstroms resolution. Crystals of form II are monoclinic, with unit-cell parameters a = 82.1, b = 33.6, c = 52.2 angstroms, beta = 128.2 degrees and an estimated one molecule in the asymmetric unit, and diffract to 2.0 angstroms resolution. This structural analysis of the human S100A15 will further aid in the phylogenic comparison between the other members of the S100 protein family, especially the highly homologous paralog S100A7.

Purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of human chondroadherin.

Project description:Chondroadherin is a cartilage matrix protein that is known to mediate the adhesion of isolated chondrocytes. Its protein core is composed of 11 leucine-rich repeats flanked by cysteine-rich domains at the N- and C-terminal ends. Recombinant human chondroadherin was crystallized using the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method. The crystals belong to the monoclinic space group P2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 56.4, b = 111.3, c = 128.5 A, beta = 92.2, and are most likely to contain four molecules in the asymmetric unit. The crystals diffracted to at least 2.3 A using synchrotron radiation, but structure determination using molecular replacement has so far been unsuccessful.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of maize aldose reductase.

Project description:Maize aldose reductase (AR) is a member of the aldo-keto reductase superfamily. In contrast to human AR, maize AR seems to prefer the conversion of sorbitol into glucose. The apoenzyme was crystallized in space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 47.2, b = 54.5, c = 100.6 A and one molecule in the asymmetric unit. Synchrotron X-ray diffraction data were collected and a final resolution limit of 2.0 A was obtained after data reduction. Phasing was carried out by an automated molecular-replacement procedure and structural refinement is currently in progress. The refined structure is expected to shed light on the functional/enzymatic mechanism and the unusual activities of maize AR.
