The ¹H, ¹⁵N, and ¹³C resonance assignments of the N-terminal domain of the nucleocapsid protein from the Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus.

ABSTRACT: During the past 17 years, the coronaviruses have become a global public emergency, with the first appearance in 2012 in Saudi Arabia of the Middle East respiratory syndrome. Among the structural proteins encoded in the viral genome, the nucleocapsid protein is the most abundant in infected cells. It is a multifunctional phosphoprotein involved in the capsid formation, in the modulation and regulation of the viral life cycle. The N-terminal domain of N protein specifically interacts with transcriptional regulatory sequence (TRS) and is involved in the discontinuous transcription through the melting activity of double-stranded TRS (dsTRS).

1H, 13C, and 15N backbone chemical shift assignments of the C-terminal dimerization domain of SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein.

Project description:The current outbreak of the highly infectious COVID-19 respiratory disease is caused by the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2). To fight the pandemic, the search for promising viral drug targets has become a cross-border common goal of the international biomedical research community. Within the international Covid19-NMR consortium, scientists support drug development against SARS-CoV-2 by providing publicly available NMR data on viral proteins and RNAs. The coronavirus nucleocapsid protein (N protein) is an RNA-binding protein involved in viral transcription and replication. Its primary function is the packaging of the viral RNA genome. The highly conserved architecture of the coronavirus N protein consists of an N-terminal RNA-binding domain (NTD), followed by an intrinsically disordered Serine/Arginine (SR)-rich linker and a C-terminal dimerization domain (CTD). Besides its involvement in oligomerization, the CTD of the N protein (N-CTD) is also able to bind to nucleic acids by itself, independent of the NTD. Here, we report the near-complete NMR backbone chemical shift assignments of the SARS-CoV-2 N-CTD to provide the basis for downstream applications, in particular site-resolved drug binding studies.

1H, 13C, and 15N resonance assignments of N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanine amidase (AmiC) N-terminal domain (NTD) from Neisseria gonorrhoeae.

Project description:Gonorrhea infections are becoming more difficult to treat due to the prevalence of strains exhibiting resistance to antibiotics and new therapeutic approaches are needed. N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanine amidase (AmiC) from Neisseria gonorrhoeae is a hydrolase that functions during cell division by cleaving the bond between the N-acetylmuramyl and L-alanine moieties of peptidoglycan. Inhibiting this enzyme offers the prospect of restoring the efficacy of existing antibiotics as treatments against N. gonorrhoeae. Of its two domains, the C-terminal domain catalyses the hydrolysis reaction and the N-terminal domain (NTD) is believed to target AmiC to its peptidoglycan substrate. Here, we report the 1H, 13C, and 15N resonance assignments of a 131 amino acid NTD construct of AmiC by heteronuclear NMR spectroscopy. The assignments represent the first for N. gonorrhoeae AmiC-NTD, laying the groundwork for detailed examination of its structure and dynamics, and providing a platform for new drug discovery efforts to address antimicrobial-resistant N. gonorrhoeae.

Crystallographic analysis of the N-terminal domain of Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus nucleocapsid protein.

Project description:The N-terminal domain of the nucleocapsid protein from Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV NP-NTD) contains many positively charged residues and has been identified to be responsible for RNA binding during ribonucleocapsid formation by the virus. In this study, the crystallization and crystallographic analysis of MERS-CoV NP-NTD (amino acids 39-165), with a molecular weight of 14.7?kDa, are reported. MERS-CoV NP-NTD was crystallized at 293?K using PEG 3350 as a precipitant and a 94.5% complete native data set was collected from a cooled crystal at 77?K to 2.63?Å resolution with an overall Rmerge of 9.6%. The crystals were monoclinic and belonged to space group P21, with unit-cell parameters a = 35.60, b = 109.64, c = 91.99?Å, ? = 101.22°. The asymmetric unit contained four MERS-CoV NP-NTD molecules.

1H, 13C, and 15N backbone chemical shift assignments of coronavirus-2 non-structural protein Nsp10.

Project description:The international Covid19-NMR consortium aims at the comprehensive spectroscopic characterization of SARS-CoV-2 RNA elements and proteins and will provide NMR chemical shift assignments of the molecular components of this virus. The SARS-CoV-2 genome encodes approximately 30 different proteins. Four of these proteins are involved in forming the viral envelope or in the packaging of the RNA genome and are therefore called structural proteins. The other proteins fulfill a variety of functions during the viral life cycle and comprise the so-called non-structural proteins (nsps). Here, we report the near-complete NMR resonance assignment for the backbone chemical shifts of the non-structural protein 10 (nsp10). Nsp10 is part of the viral replication-transcription complex (RTC). It aids in synthesizing and modifying the genomic and subgenomic RNAs. Via its interaction with nsp14, it ensures transcriptional fidelity of the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, and through its stimulation of the methyltransferase activity of nsp16, it aids in synthesizing the RNA cap structures which protect the viral RNAs from being recognized by the innate immune system. Both of these functions can be potentially targeted by drugs. Our data will aid in performing additional NMR-based characterizations, and provide a basis for the identification of possible small molecule ligands interfering with nsp10 exerting its essential role in viral replication.

1H, 13C, and 15N backbone resonance assignments for KPC-2, a class A serine-β-lactamase.

Project description:The ever-increasing occurrence of antibiotic resistance presents a major threat to public health. Specifically, resistance conferred by β-lactamases places the efficacy of currently available antibiotics at risk. Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase-2 (KPC-2) is a β-lactamase that enables carbapenem resistance and represents a clear and present danger to global public health. In order to combat bacterial infections harboring KPC-2 expression, inhibitors with improved potency need to be developed. Although the structure of KPC-2 has been solved by X-ray crystallography, NMR provides the unique opportunity to study the structure and dynamics of flexible loop regions in solution. Here we report the 1H, 13C, and 15N backbone chemical shift assignments for KPC-2 in the apo state as the first step towards the study of KPC-2 dynamics in the presence and absence of ligands to enable the rational design of optimized inhibitors.

Backbone 1H, 13C, and 15N resonance assignments of deubiquitinase A in non-phosphorylated and phosphorylated forms.

Project description:Ubiquitination is one of the most prevalent forms of post-translational modifications that are important for regulating many cellular processes in eukaryotes. Deubiquitinases are proteases that hydrolyze the isopeptide or peptide bonds formed between ubiquitin and the target proteins or within a polyubiquitin chain. Deubiquitinase A (DUBA) is a deubiquitinase known to be a negative regulator of innate immune responses in humans by suppressing production of type I interferons (INF-I). Excess INF-I production has been associated with autoimmune diseases. Phosphorylation of a single serine residue at position 177 is essential for the protease activity of DUBA. The structural and mechanistic basis of DUBA activation by phosphorylation and substrate specificity is not well understood. Here, we report the backbone resonance assignments of the isoform 2 of DUBA in both non-phosphorylated and phosphorylated forms. The reported assignments form the basis for future NMR studies on the structural and dynamical properties of both active and inactive forms of DUBA.

Complete 1H, 13C, 15N resonance assignments and secondary structure of the Vpr binding region of hHR23A (residues 223-363).

Project description:Comprehensive resonance assignments and delineation of the secondary structure elements of the C-terminal Vpr-binding region of hHR23A, residues 223-363, were achieved by triple-resonance NMR experiments on uniformly 13C,15N-labeled protein. Assignments are 100% and > 95% complete for backbone and side-chain resonances, respectively. This data constitutes important complementary information for our ongoing structure determination of the Vpr-hHR23A(223-363) complex. At high concentrations, severe line-broadening was observed for several residues in the 1H-15N HSQC spectrum, most likely resulting from inter-molecular interactions.

(1)H, (15)N, (13)C resonance assignments for Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rad23 UBL domain.

Project description:Rad23 functions in nucleotide excision repair and proteasome-mediated protein degradation. It has four distinct structural domains that are connected by flexible linker regions, including an N-terminal ubiquitin-like (UBL) domain that binds proteasomes. We report in this NMR study the (1)H, (15)N and (13)C resonance assignments for the backbone and side chain atoms of the Rad23 UBL domain (Rad23(UBL)) with BioMagResBank accession number 25825. We find that a Rad23 proline amino acid (P20) located in a loop undergoes isomerization. The secondary structural elements predicted from the NMR data fit well to that of the Rad23(UBL) when complexed with E4 ubiquitin ligase Ufd2, as reported in a crystallographic structure. These complete assignments can be used to study the protein dynamics of the Rad23(UBL) and its interaction of with other ubiquitin receptors or proteasome subunits.

1H, 15N, 13C backbone resonance assignments of human soluble catechol O-methyltransferase in complex with S-adenosyl-L-methionine and 3,5-dinitrocatechol.

Project description:Catechol O-methyltransferase (COMT) is an enzyme that plays a major role in catechol neurotransmitter deactivation. Inhibition of COMT can increase neurotransmitter levels, which provides a means of treatment for Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia and depression. COMT exists as two isozymes: a soluble cytoplasmic form (S-COMT), expressed in the liver and kidneys and a membrane-bound form (MB-COMT), found mostly in the brain. Here we report the backbone 1H, 15N and 13C chemical shift assignments of S-COMT in complex with S-adenosyl-L-methionine, 3,5-dinitrocatechol and Mg2+. Assignments were obtained by heteronuclear multidimensional NMR spectroscopy. In total, 97 % of all backbone resonances were assigned in the complex, with 205 out of a possible 215 residues assigned in the 1H-15N TROSY spectrum. Prediction of solution secondary structure from a chemical shift analysis using the TALOS+ webserver is in good agreement with published X-ray crystal structures.
