ABSTRACT: Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron BT0793, a putative xylose isomerase, was overexpressed in Escherichia coli, purified and crystallized using polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether 550 as the precipitant. X-ray diffraction data were collected to 2.10?Å resolution at 100?K using synchrotron X-rays. The crystal was found to belong to space group P1, with unit-cell parameters a=96.3, b=101.7, c=108.3?Å, ?=82.8, ?=68.2, ?=83.0°. The asymmetric unit contained eight subunits of xylose isomerase with a crystal volume per protein weight (VM) of 2.38?Å3?Da(-1) and a solvent content of 48.3%.

Overexpression, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of D-ribose-5-phosphate isomerase from Clostridium thermocellum.

Project description:Rare sugars are used for many industrial and medical purposes and are produced by the interconversion between aldoses and ketoses catalyzed by sugar and sugar-phosphate isomerases. Recently, Clostridium thermocellum d-ribose-5-phosphate isomerase (CTRPI), an aldose-ketose isomerase, was cloned in order to synthesize d-allose and its substrate specificity was further characterized for industrial usage. CTRPI has a novel substrate specificity that differs from those of other isomerases, which have broad substrate specificities. CTRPI prefers aldose substrates such as l-talose, d-ribose and d-allose. CTRPI was purified and crystallized in order to determine its three-dimensional structure and thus to elucidate its enzymatic reaction mechanism and understand its substrate specificity. The crystal belonged to the trigonal space group P3(2)21, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 69.5, c = 154.4 angstrom, and diffracted to 1.9 angstrom resolution. According to Matthews coefficient calculations, the crystallographic structure consists of a dimer in the asymmetric unit, with a V(M) of 3.2 angstrom(3) Da(-1) and a solvent content of 61.7%.

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.

Overexpression, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of a putative transposase from Thermoplasma acidophilum encoded by the Ta0474 gene.

Project description:IS200 transposases, originally identified in Salmonella typhimurium LT2, are present in many bacteria and archaea and are distinct from other groups of transposases. To facilitate further structural comparisons among IS200-like transposases, structural analysis has been initiated of a putative transposase from Thermoplasma acidophilum encoded by the Ta0474 gene. Its 137-residue polypeptide shows high levels of sequence similarity to other members of the IS200 transposase family. The protein was overexpressed in intact form in Escherichia coli and crystallized at 297 K using a reservoir solution consisting of 100 mM Na HEPES pH 7.5 and 20%(v/v) ethanol.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of L-arabinose isomerase from thermophilic Geobacillus kaustophilus.

Project description:L-arabinose isomerase (AI), which catalyzes the isomerization of L-arabinose to L-ribulose, can also convert D-galactose to D-tagatose, a natural sugar replacer, which is of commercial interest in the food and healthcare industries. Intriguingly, mesophilic and thermophilic AIs showed different substrate preferences and metal requirements in catalysis and different thermostabilities. However, the catalytic mechanism of thermophilic AIs still remains unclear. Therefore, thermophilic Geobacillus kaustophilus AI (GKAI) was overexpressed, purified and crystallized, and a preliminary X-ray diffraction data set was obtained. Diffraction data were collected from a GKAI crystal to 2.70?Å resolution. The crystal belonged to the monoclinic space group C2, with unit-cell parameters a = 224.12, b = 152.95, c = 91.28?Å, ? = 103.61°. The asymmetric unit contained six molecules, with a calculated Matthews coefficient of 2.25?Å(3)?Da(-1) and a solvent content of 45.39%. The three-dimensional structure determination of GKAI is currently in progress by molecular replacement and model building.

Overexpression, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of the phosphotriesterase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Project description:Organophosphates (OPs) are extremely toxic compounds that are used as insecticides or even as chemical warfare agents. Phosphotriesterases (PHPs) are responsible for the detoxification of OPs by catalysing their degradation. Almost 100 PHP structures have been solved to date, yet the crystal structure of the phosphotriesterase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (mPHP) remains unavailable. This study reports the first crystallization of mPHP. The crystal belonged to space group C222(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 68.03, b = 149.60, c = 74.23?Å, ? = ? = ? = 90°. An analytical ultracentrifugation experiment suggested that mPHP exists as a dimer in solution, even though one molecule is calculated to be present in the asymmetric unit according to the structural data.

Overexpression, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of shikimate dehydrogenase from Archaeoglobus fulgidus.

Project description:Shikimate dehydrogenase (SDH), which catalyses the NADPH-dependent reduction of 3-dehydroshikimate to shikimate in the shikimate pathway, is an attractive target for the development of herbicides and antimicrobial agents. Previous structural studies have shown that SDH exists in two conformations, an open and a closed form, and it is believed that the conformational state is crucial to understanding its catalytic mechanism. In order to facilitate further structural comparisons among SDHs, including the conformational state, structural analysis of an SDH from Archaeoglobus fulgidus encoded by the Af2327 gene has been initiated. SeMet-labelled SDH from A. fulgidus was overexpressed in Escherichia coli and crystallized at 296 K using ammonium sulfate as a precipitant in order to use the MAD method for structure determination. Crystals of A. fulgidus SDH grown in the presence of NADP(+) diffracted to 2.8 Å resolution and belonged to the trigonal space group P3(2)21 (or P3(2)21), with unit-cell parameters a = 111.3, b = 111.3, c = 76.2 Å. Three diffraction data sets were collected. The asymmetric unit contains two monomers, with a corresponding V(M) of 2.34 Å(3) Da(-1) and a solvent content of 47% by volume.
