Crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of the putative sugar-binding protein Msmeg_0515 (AgaE) from Mycobacterium smegmatis.

ABSTRACT: Msmeg_0515, a gene from Mycobacterium smegmatis strain 155 encoding the ligand-binding domain, AgaE, of a putative ABC sugar transporter system, has been cloned into a pET-28a vector system, overexpressed in Escherichia coli and purified. The truncated protein lacking the first 27 residues, which correspond to a N-terminal signal sequence, was crystallized using the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion technique. The crystals of this protein diffracted to 1.48 Å resolution and belonged to space group P212121, with unit-cell parameters a = 64.06, b = 69.26, c = 100.74 Å, ? = ? = ? = 90° and with one molecule in the asymmetric unit.

The putative polyketide cyclase MSMEG_0129 from Mycobacterium smegmatis: purification, crystallization and X-ray crystallographic analysis.

Project description:Mycobacterium tuberculosis Rv0164 has previously been identified as a human T-cell antigen that induces significant production of IFN-γ in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells. M. smegmatis MSMEG_0129 shares 59% sequence identity with Rv0164. Based on sequence alignment, both proteins are predicted to be members of the cyclase/dehydrase family, which is part of a large group of enzymes referred to as type II polyketide synthases (PKSs). In biosynthetic pathways mediated by type II PKSs, cyclases catalyze the conversion of linear poly-β-ketones to cyclized intermediates. To date, no mycobacterial type II PKSs have been reported. Here, the goal is to determine whether these proteins adopt similar folds to reported cyclase structures, and to this end MSMEG_0129 was cloned, expressed, purified and crystallized. An X-ray diffraction data set was collected to 1.95 Å resolution from a crystal belonging to space group P62, with unit-cell parameters a = 109.76, b = 109.76, c = 56.5 Å, α = 90, β = 90, γ = 120°. Further crystallographic analysis should establish a basis for investigating the structure and function of this putative mycobacterial type II PKS enzyme.

HisB from Mycobacterium tuberculosis: cloning, overexpression in Mycobacterium smegmatis, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis.

Project description:HisB, encoded by open reading frame Rv1601, possesses enzymatic activity as an imidazoleglycerol-phosphate dehydratase in the histidine-biosynthetic pathway of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. A recombinant form of HisB was crystallized in three crystal forms: crystals grown using 20% PEG 1500 as a precipitant belonged to either the cubic space group P432 or the tetragonal space group P4, while an orthorhombic crystal form belonging to space group P2(1)2(1)2 was obtained using 15% PEG 5000 and 10 mM MnCl(2) as precipitant. The structure of HisB in the orthorhombic crystal form was solved by the molecular-replacement method using the crystal structure of its Arabidopsis thaliana counterpart, which shares 47% sequence identity with Rv1601, as the search model.

Cloning, expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of MsDpo4: a Y-family DNA polymerase from Mycobacterium smegmatis.

Project description:The expression of error-prone DNA polymerases belonging to the Y-family is upregulated in prokaryotes under adverse conditions to facilitate adaptive mutagenesis. However, it has been suggested that representatives of this family in mycobacteria do not participate in adaptive mutagenesis. These studies raise the possibility that mycobacterial representatives might be devoid of biochemical activity. In order to determine whether this possible loss of activity is a consequence of significant changes in the structure of these enzymes, structural studies on a representative enzyme from Mycobacterium smegmatis, MsDpo4, were initiated. The protein crystallized in space group P6(1)22 or P6(5)22. The Matthews coefficient was 4.0 Å3 Da(-1) assuming the presence of one molecule in the asymmetric unit; the corresponding solvent content was 69%. X-ray diffraction data were collected to a minimum Bragg spacing of 2.6 Å and crystals of selenomethionine-labelled MsDpo4 have been prepared for ab initio phasing.

Expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of a putative Clostridium difficile surface protein Cwp19.

Project description:Cwp19 is a putatively surface-located protein from Clostridium difficile. A recombinant N-terminal protein (residues 27-401) lacking the signal peptide and the C-terminal cell-wall-binding repeats (PFam04122) was crystallized using the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method and diffracted to 2 Å resolution. The crystal appeared to belong to the primitive monoclinic space group P2(1), with unit-cell parameters a=109.1, b=61.2, c=109.2 Å, β=111.85°, and is estimated to contain two molecules of Cwp19 per asymmetric unit.

Purification, crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of Streptococcus pyogenes laminin-binding protein Lbp.

Project description:The laminin-binding protein Lbp (Spy2007) from Streptococcus pyogenes (a group A streptococcus) mediates adhesion to the human basal lamina glycoprotein laminin. Accordingly, Lbp is essential in in vitro models of cell adhesion and invasion. However, the molecular and structural basis of laminin binding by bacteria remains unknown. Therefore, the lbp gene has been cloned for recombinant expression in Escherichia coli. Lbp has been purified and crystallized from 30%(w/v) PEG 1500 by the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method. The crystals belonged to the monoclinic space group P2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 42.62, b = 92.16, c = 70.61 A, beta = 106.27 degrees, and diffracted to 2.5 A resolution.

Crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of a C2 protein from Arabidopsis thaliana.

Project description:An uncharacterized protein from Arabidopsis thaliana consisting of a single C2 domain (At3g17980) was cloned into the pETM11 vector and expressed in Escherichia coli, allowing purification to homogeneity in a single chromatographic step. Good-quality diffracting crystals were obtained using vapour-diffusion techniques. The crystals diffracted to 2.2 Å resolution and belonged to space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 35.3, b = 88.9, c = 110.6 Å. A promising molecular-replacement solution has been found using the structure of the C2 domain of Munc13-C2b (PDB entry 3kwt) as the search model.

MSMEG_6292, a Mycobacterium smegmatis RNA polymerase secondary channel-binding protein: purification, crystallization and X-ray diffraction analysis.

Project description:The transcriptional activity of RNA polymerase (RNAP) is controlled by a diverse set of regulatory factors. A subset of these regulators modulate the activity of RNAP through its secondary channel. Gre factors reactivate stalled elongation complexes by enhancing the intrinsic cleavage activity of RNAP. In the present study, the protein MSMEG_6292, a Gre-factor homologue from Mycobacterium smegmatis, was expressed heterologously in Escherichia coli and purified using standard chromatographic techniques. The hanging-drop vapour-diffusion crystallization method yielded diffraction-quality crystals. The crystals belonged to the trigonal space group P3121 (or its enantiomorph P3221), with unit-cell parameters a = b = 83.15, c = 107.07?Å, ? = ? = 90, ? = 120°. The crystals diffracted to better than 3.0?Å resolution. Molecular-replacement attempts did not yield any phasing models; hence, platinum derivatization was carried out with K2PtCl4 and derivative data were collected to 3.4?Å resolution.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray characterization of MutT2, MSMEG_5148 from Mycobacterium smegmatis.

Project description:Crystallization of MutT2, MSMEG_5148 from Mycobacterium smegmatis, has been carried out and the crystals have been characterized using X-ray diffraction. Matthews coefficient calculation suggests the possibility of one protein molecule in the asymmetric unit of the orthorhombic unit cell, space group P2(1)2(1)2 or P2(1)22. Solution of the structure of the protein by molecular replacement using the known three-dimensional structure of a bacterial Nudix hydrolase is envisaged.
