Expression, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic studies of SCP3 coiled-coil domain.

ABSTRACT: The synaptonemal complex protein SCP3 is one of the components of the lateral element of the synaptonemal complex, which is a meiosis-specific complex structure formed at the synapse of homologous chromosomes. In this study, a C-terminal coiled-coil domain, SCP3, was overexpressed in Escherichia coli with an engineered C-terminal His tag. The coiled-coil domain of SCP3 was then purified to homogeneity and crystallized at 293?K. X-ray diffraction data were collected to a resolution of 3.2?Å from a crystal belonging to space group C2, with unit-cell parameters a = 121.29, b = 43.08, c = 57.42?Å, ? = 100.71°. The asymmetric unit was estimated to contain three molecules.

Purification, crystallization and preliminary x-ray crystallographic studies of RAIDD Death-Domain (DD).

Project description:Caspase-2 activation by formation of PIDDosome is critical for genotoxic stress induced apoptosis. PIDDosome is composed of three proteins, RAIDD, PIDD, and Caspase-2. RAIDD is an adaptor protein containing an N-terminal Caspase-Recruiting-Domain (CARD) and a C-terminal Death-Domain (DD). Its interactions with Caspase-2 and PIDD through CARD and DD respectively and formation of PIDDosome are important for the activation of Caspase-2. RAIDD DD cloned into pET26b vector was expressed in E. coli cells and purified by nickel affinity chromatography and gel filtration. Although it has been known that the most DDs are not soluble in physiological condition, RAIDD DD was soluble and interacts tightly with PIDD DD in physiological condition. The purified RAIDD DD alone has been crystallized. Crystals are trigonal and belong to space group P3(1)21 (or its enantiomorph P3(2)21) with unit-cell parameters a = 56.3, b = 56.3, c = 64.9 A and gamma = 120 degrees . The crystals were obtained at room temperature and diffracted to 2.0 A resolution.

Cloning, expression, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of a human condensin SMC2 hinge domain with short coiled coils.

Project description:In higher eukaryotes, the condensin complex, which mainly consists of two structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) subunits, SMC2 (CAP-E) and SMC4 (CAP-C), plays a critical role in the formation of higher order chromosome structures during mitosis. Biochemical and electron-microscopic studies have revealed that the SMC2 and SMC4 subunits dimerize through the interaction of their hinge domains, forming a characteristic V-shaped heterodimer. However, the details of their function are still not fully understood owing to a lack of structural information at the atomic level. In this study, the human SMC2 hinge domain with short coiled coils was cloned, expressed, purified and crystallized in the orthorhombic space group C222 in native and SeMet-derivatized forms. Because of the poor diffraction properties of these crystals, the mutant Leu68-->SeMet was designed and crystallized in order to obtain the experimental phases. The SeMet-derivatized crystals of the mutant belonged to space group P3(2)12, with unit-cell parameters a=b=128.8, c=91.4 A. The diffraction data obtained from a crystal that diffracted to 2.4 A resolution were suitable for SAD phasing.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic studies of the PYD domain of human NALP3.

Project description:The NALP3 inflammasome is a macromolecular complex that is responsible for the innate immune response against infection by bacterial and viral pathogens. The NALP3 inflammasome is composed of three protein components: NALP3, ASC and caspase 1. Interaction between NALP3 and ASC via PYD domains is critical for the assembly of the NALP3 inflammasome. In this study, human NALP3 PYD, corresponding to amino acids 3-110, was overexpressed in Escherichia coli using engineered C-terminal His tags. NALP3 PYD was then purified to homogeneity and crystallized at 293 K. Finally, X-ray diffraction data were collected to a resolution of 1.7 Å from a crystal belonging to the primitive monoclinic space group P2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 42.03, b = 60.14, c = 51.61 Å, ? = 107.40°.

Expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic studies of Deinococcus radiodurans thioredoxin reductase.

Project description:Deinococcus radiodurans, a Gram-positive bacterium capable of withstanding extreme ionizing radiation, contains two thioredoxins (Trx and Trx1) and a single thioredoxin reductase (TrxR) as part of its response to oxidative stress. Thioredoxin reductase is a member of the family of pyridine nucleotide-disulfide oxidoreductase flavoenzymes. Recombinant D. radiodurans TrxR with a His tag at the N-terminus was expressed in Escherichia coli and purified by metal-affinity chromatography. The protein was crystallized using the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method in the presence of 35% PEG 4000, 0.2 M ammonium acetate and citric acid buffer pH 5.1 at 293 K. X-ray diffraction data were collected on a cryocooled crystal to a resolution of 1.9 angstroms using a synchrotron-radiation source. The space group was determined to be P3(2)21, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 84.33, c = 159.88 angstroms. The structure of the enzyme has been solved by molecular-replacement methods and structure refinement is in progress.
