Characterization and structure of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase type 1 from Escherichia coli.

ABSTRACT: Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) is a key enzyme in the glycolytic pathway that catalyzes the conversion of D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate to 1,3-diphosphoglycerate. Here, the full-length GAPDH type 1 from Escherichia coli (EcGAPDH1) was cloned and overexpressed, and the protein was purified. Biochemical analyses found that the optimum reaction temperature and pH of EcGAPDH1 were 55°C and 10.0, respectively. The protein has a certain amount of thermostability. Crystals of EcGAPDH1 were obtained using the sitting-drop vapor-diffusion technique and X-ray diffraction data were collected to 1.88 Å resolution. Characterization of the crystals showed that they belonged to space group P4₁2₁2, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 89.651, c = 341.007 Å, α = β = γ = 90°. The structure of EcGAPDH1 contains four subunits, each of which includes an N-terminal NAD⁺-binding domain and a C-terminal catalytic domain. Analysis of the NAD⁺-bound form showed some differences between the structures of EcGAPDH1 and human GAPDH. As EcGAPDH1 shares 100% identity with GAPDH from Shigella sonnei, its structure may help in finding a drug for the treatment of shigellosis.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Host proteins are incorporated inside human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) virions during assembly and can either positively or negatively regulate HIV-1 infection. Although the identification efficiency of host proteins is improved by mass spectrometry, how those host proteins affect HIV-1 replication has not yet been fully clarified. RESULTS: In this study, we show that virion-associated glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) does not allosterically inactivate HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) but decreases the efficiency of reverse transcription reactions by decreasing the packaging efficiency of lysyl-tRNA synthetase (LysRS) and tRNA(Lys3) into HIV-1 virions. Two-dimensional (2D) gel electrophoresis demonstrated that some isozymes of GAPDH with different isoelectric points were expressed in HIV-1-producing CEM/LAV-1 cells, and a proportion of GAPDH was selectively incorporated into the virions. Suppression of GAPDH expression by RNA interference in CEM/LAV-1 cells resulted in decreased GAPDH packaging inside the virions, and the GAPDH-packaging-defective virus maintained at least control levels of viral production but increased the infectivity. Quantitative analysis of reverse transcription products indicated that the levels of early cDNA products of the GAPDH-packaging-defective virus were higher than those of the control virus owing to the higher packaging efficiencies of LysRS and tRNA(Lys3) into the virions rather than the GAPDH-dependent negative allosteric modulation for RT. Furthermore, immunoprecipitation assay using an anti-GAPDH antibody showed that GAPDH directly interacted with Pr55(gag) and p160(gag)-pol and the overexpression of LysRS in HIV-1-producing cells resulted in a decrease in the efficiency of GAPDH packaging in HIV particles. In contrast, the viruses produced from cells expressing a high level of GAPDH showed decreased infectivity in TZM-bl cells and reverse transcription efficiency in TZM-bl cells and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). CONCLUSIONS: These findings indicate that GAPDH negatively regulates HIV-1 infection and provide insights into a novel function of GAPDH in the HIV-1 life cycle and a new host defense mechanism against HIV-1 infection.
