Purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of a putative nucleotide phosphohydrolase, YpgQ, from Bacillus subtilis.

ABSTRACT: The histidine-aspartate (HD) domain exerts phosphohydrolase activity on nucleotides and functions in nucleotide metabolism. Sequence analysis suggested that YpgQ from Bacillus subtilis contains the HD domain, but the structure and function of YpgQ remain to be revealed. The recombinant YpgQ protein was overexpressed in an Escherichia coli cell expression system and was purified to homogeneity by Ni-NTA affinity and anion-exchange chromatography. Crystals in space group P2? were obtained in PEG 600 solutions and diffracted X-rays to 2.3?Å resolution. Moreover, X-ray fluorescence scans on YpgQ crystals demonstrated the metal-binding ability of YpgQ.

Project description:Nattokinase is a single polypeptide chain composed of 275 amino acids (molecular weight 27,724) which displays strong fibrinolytic activity. Moreover, it can activate other fibrinolytic enzymes such as pro-urokinase and tissue plasminogen activator.

Diffraction images were processed to a resolution of 1.74?Å with an Rmerge of 5.2% (15.3% in the highest resolution shell) and a completeness of 69.8% (30.0% in the highest resolution shell). This study reports the first X-ray diffraction analysis of nattokinase.

Purification, crystallization and X-ray crystallographic studies on a putative methyltransferase, YtqB, from Bacillus subtilis.

Project description:S-Adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM)-dependent methyltransferases (MTases) catalyze the transfer of a methyl group from a SAM cofactor to specific substrate molecules, including small chemicals, proteins, DNAs and RNAs, and are required for various cellular functions, such as regulation of gene expression and biosynthesis of metabolites. Bacillus subtilis YtqB is a putative SAM-dependent MTase whose biological function has not been characterized. To provide biochemical and structural insights into the role of YtqB in bacteria, the recombinant YtqB protein was overexpressed in the Escherichia coli expression system and purified by chromatographic methods. YtqB crystals were obtained in PEG-containing conditions and diffracted to 1.68?Å resolution. The YtqB crystals belonged to space group P212121, with two molecules in the asymmetric unit.

Expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of L-lactate dehydrogenase and its H171C mutant from Bacillus subtilis.

Project description:L-Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is an important enzyme involved in the last step of glycolysis that catalyzes the reversible conversion of pyruvate to L-lactate with the simultaneous oxidation of NADH to NAD(+). In this study, wild-type LDH from Bacillus subtilis (BsLDH-WT) and the H171C mutant (BsLDH-H171C) were expressed in Escherichia coli and purified to near-homogeneity. BsLDH-WT was crystallized in the presence of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate (FBP) and NAD(+) and the crystal diffracted to 2.38 Å resolution. The crystal belonged to space group P3, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 171.04, c = 96.27 Å. BsLDH-H171C was also crystallized as the apoenzyme and in complex with NAD(+), and data sets were collected to 2.20 and 2.49 Å resolution, respectively. Both BsLDH-H171C crystals belonged to space group P3, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 133.41, c = 99.34 Å and a = b = 133.43, c = 99.09 Å, respectively. Tetramers were observed in the asymmetric units of all three crystals.

Cloning, purification and preliminary crystallographic analysis of a putative pyridoxal kinase from Bacillus subtilis.

Project description:Pyridoxal kinases (PdxK) are able to catalyse the phosphorylation of three vitamin B(6) precursors, pyridoxal, pyridoxine and pyridoxamine, to their 5'-phosphates and play an important role in the vitamin B(6) salvage pathway. Recently, the thiD gene of Bacillus subtilis was found to encode an enzyme which has the activity expected of a pyridoxal kinase despite its previous assignment as an HMPP kinase owing to higher sequence similarity. As such, this enzyme would appear to represent a new class of ;HMPP kinase-like' pyridoxal kinases. B. subtilis thiD has been cloned and the protein has been overexpressed in Escherichia coli, purified and subsequently crystallized in a binary complex with ADP and Mg(2+). X-ray diffraction data have been collected from crystals to 2.8 A resolution at 100 K. The crystals belong to a primitive tetragonal system, point group 422, and analysis of the systematic absences suggest that they belong to one of the enantiomorphic pair of space groups P4(1)2(1)2 or P4(3)2(1)2. Consideration of the space-group symmetry and unit-cell parameters (a = b = 102.9, c = 252.6 A, alpha = beta = gamma = 90 degrees ) suggest that the crystals contain between three and six molecules in the asymmetric unit. A full structure determination is under way to provide insights into aspects of the enzyme mechanism and substrate specificity.

Molecular cloning, overexpression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of a purine nucleoside phosphorylase from Bacillus subtilis strain 168.

Project description:Purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP; EC 2.4.2.1) is a key enzyme of the purine-salvage pathway. Its ability to transfer glycosyl residues to acceptor bases is of great biotechnological interest owing to its potential application in the synthesis of nucleoside analogues used in the treatment of antiviral infections and in anticancer chemotherapy. Although hexameric PNPs are prevalent in prokaryotes, some microorganisms, such as Bacillus subtilis, present both hexameric and trimeric PNPs. The hexameric PNP from B. subtilis strain 168, named BsPNP233, was cloned, expressed and crystallized. Crystals belonging to different space groups (P32(1), P2(1)2(1)2(1), P6(3)22 and H32) were grown in distinct conditions with pH values ranging from 4.2 to 10.5. The crystals diffracted to maximum resolutions ranging from 2.65 to 1.70 Å.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of YisP protein from Bacillus subtilis subsp. subtilis strain 168.

Project description:YisP is an enzyme involved in the pathway of biofilm formation in bacteria and is predicted to possess squalene synthase activity. A BlastP search using the YisP protein sequence from Bacillus subtilis subsp. subtilis strain 168 shows that it shares 23% identity with the dehydrosqualene synthase from Staphylococcus aureus. The YisP from B. subtilis 168 was expressed in Escherichia coli and the recombinant protein was purified and crystallized. The crystals, which belong to the orthorhombic space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 43.966, b = 77.576, c = 91.378?Å, were obtained by the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method and diffracted to 1.92?Å resolution. Structure determination using MAD and MIR methods is in progress.
