Expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of full-length human RIG-I.

ABSTRACT: The human innate immune system can detect invasion by microbial pathogens through pattern-recognition receptors that recognize structurally conserved pathogen-associated molecular patterns. Retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I)-like helicases (RLHs) are one of the two major families of pattern-recognition receptors that can detect viral RNA. RIG-I, belonging to the RLH family, is capable of recognizing intracellular viral RNA from RNA viruses, including influenza virus and Ebola virus. Here, full-length human RIG-I (hRIG-I) was cloned in Escherichia coli and expressed in a recombinant form with a His-SUMO tag. The protein was purified and crystallized at 291 K using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. X-ray diffraction data were collected to 2.85 Å resolution; the crystal belonged to space group F23, with unit-cell parameters a = b = c = 216.43 Å, ? = ? = ? = 90°.

Expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of human ?-galactosidase.

Project description:?-D-Galactosidase (?-Gal) is an exoglycosidase that cleaves ?-galactosides from glycoproteins, sphingolipids and keratan sulfate. This study reports the expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of human lysosomal ?-Gal. The sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method was used to crystallize ?-Gal in complexes with its product galactose and with the inhibitor 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin. The resulting crystals were isomorphous and belonged to space group P2(1). The crystals of the ?-Gal-galactose and the ?-Gal-inhibitor complexes had unit-cell parameters a = 94.8, b = 116.1, c = 140.3 Å, ? = 92.2° and a = 94.8, b = 116.0, c = 140.3 Å, ? = 92.2°, respectively. Diffraction data were collected to 1.8 Å resolution for both crystals.

Project description:NORE1 is an important tumour suppressor in human cancers that interacts with the pro-apoptotic protein kinase MST1/2 through SARAH domains. The SARAH domain (residues 366-413) of human NORE1 was expressed in Escherichia coli, purified and crystallized using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method.

Cloning, expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of recombinant human fumarase.

Project description:Human fumarase (HsFH) is a well-known citric acid cycle enzyme and is therefore a key component in energy metabolism. Genetic studies on human patients have shown that polymorphisms in the fumarase gene are responsible for diseases such as hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer. As a first step in unravelling the molecular basis of the mechanism of fumarase deficiency in genetic disorders, the HsFH gene was cloned in pET-28a, heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli, purified by nickel-affinity chromatography and crystallized using the vapour-diffusion technique. X-ray diffraction experiments were performed at a synchrotron source and the structure was solved at 2.1?Å resolution by molecular replacement.

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%.

Expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of Enpp1.

Project description:Enpp1 is an extracellular membrane-bound glycoprotein that regulates bone mineralization by hydrolyzing ATP to generate pyrophosphate. The extracellular region of mouse Enpp1 was expressed in HEK293S GnT1(-) cells, purified using the TARGET tag/P20.1-Sepharose system and crystallized. An X-ray diffraction data set was collected to 3.0?Å resolution. The crystal belonged to space group P3(1), with unit-cell parameters a = b = 105.3, c = 173.7?Å. 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.

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 the full-length Mg2+ transporter MgtE.

Project description:The MgtE family of Mg(2+) transporters are ubiquitously conserved in all three domains. The genes encoding full-length MgtE from seven different species were cloned. Three of the seven MgtE transporters were overexpressed and purified for use in crystallization trials. Only Thermus thermophilus MgtE was successfully crystallized using the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method. Selenomethionine-substituted (SeMet) crystals were obtained by cross-microseeding using the native microcrystals. The SeMet crystals diffracted X-rays to 3.5 A resolution using synchrotron radiation and belong to space group C222(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 118.3, b = 134.9, c = 366.2 A. Structure determination is in progress.

Purification, crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of the full-length cystathionine ?-synthase from Apis mellifera.

Project description:Cystathionine ?-synthase (CBS) is a pyridoxal-5'-phosphate-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the first step of the transsulfuration pathway, namely the condensation of serine with homocysteine to form cystathionine. Mutations in the CBS gene are the single most common cause of hereditary homocystinuria, a multisystemic disease affecting to various extents the vasculature, connective tissues and central nervous system. At present, the crystal structure of CBS from Drosophila melanogaster is the only available structure of the full-length enzyme. Here we describe a cloning, overexpression, purification and preliminary crystallographic analysis of a full-length CBS from Apis mellifera (AmCBS) which maintains 51 and 46% sequence identity with its Drosophila and human homologs, respectively. The AmCBS yielded crystals belonging to space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit-cell parameters a=85.90, b=95.87, c=180.33?Å. Diffraction data were collected to a resolution of 3.0?Å. The crystal structure contained two molecules in the asymmetric unit which presumably correspond to the dimeric species observed in solution.

Expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa AlgX.

Project description:AlgX is a periplasmic protein required for the production of the exopolysaccharide alginate in Pseudomonas sp. and Azotobacter vinelandii. AlgX has been overexpressed and purified and diffraction-quality crystals have been grown using iterative seeding and the hanging-drop vapor-diffusion method. The crystals grew as flat plates with unit-cell parameters a = 46.4, b = 120.6, c = 86.9 A, beta = 95.7 degrees . The crystals exhibited the symmetry of space group P2(1) and diffracted to a minimum d-spacing of 2.1 A. On the basis of the Matthews coefficient (V(M) = 2.25 A(3) Da(-1)), two molecules were estimated to be present in the asymmetric unit.
