Hormone Sensitive

Hormone sensitive lipase is a central enzyme in triacylglycerol hydrolysis, lipid modification, and transformation of various lipids. Microbial hormone-sensitive lipases, which are highly similar to a catalytic domain of mammalian equivalents, have attracted strong attention due to their application potentials. Here, characterization and a preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of a novel bacterial homologue of hormone-sensitive lipase (HaLip1) from Halocynthiibacter arcticus is reported. Sequence analysis shows that HaLip1 has a conserved serine residue within the GDSAG motif. In addition, a characteristic HGGG motif for oxyanion formation was identified. The HaLip1 protein was overexpressed in E. coli. SDS-PAGE, overlay assay, and mass analysis were performed to confirm purity and activity of HaLip1 protein. Furthermore, HaLip1 was crystallized in a condtion consisting of 25% (w/v) PEG 3350, 0.1 M Hepes-KOH, pH 7.5, 0.2 M sodium chloride. Diffraction data were processed to 1.30 Å with an Rmerge of 7.3%. The crystals of HaLip1 belong to the P212121, with unit cell parameters of a = 54.6 Å, b = 59.5 Å, and c = 82.9 Å.

Membrane Bound

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 groupP1, with unit-cell parametersa= 63.7,b= 68.8,c= 69.7 Å, α = 60.6, β = 87.0, γ = 68.1°. Assuming the presence of two protein molecules per asymmetric unit, the solvent content was estimated to be 49.5%.

Human hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase-like protein 2 (HSDL2) is a member of the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase (SDR) subfamily of oxidoreductases and contains an N-terminal catalytic domain and a C-termianl sterol carrier protein type 2 (SCP-2) domain. In this study, the C-terminal SCP-2 domain of human HSDL2, including residues Lys318–Arg416, was produced inEscherichia coli, purified and crystallized. X-ray diffraction data were collected to 2.10 Å resolution. The crystal belonged to the trigonal space groupP3121 (orP3221), with unit-cell parametersa=b= 70.4,c= 60.6 Å, α = β = 90, γ = 120°.

Induced Genes

Universal stress proteins (Usps) are among the most highly induced genes when bacteria are subjected to several stress conditions such as heat shock, nutrient starvation or the presence of oxidants or other stress agents.Escherichia colihas five small Usps and one tandem-type Usp. UspE (or YdaA) is the tandem-type Usp and consists of two Usp domains arranged in tandem. To date, the structure of UspE remains to be elucidated. To contribute to the molecular understanding of the function of the tandem-type UspE, UspE fromE. coliwas overexpressed and the recombinant protein was purified using Ni–NTA affinity, Q anion-exchange and gel-filtration chromatography. Crystals of UspE were obtained by sitting-drop vapour diffusion. A diffraction data set was collected to a resolution of 3.2 Å from flash-cooled crystals. The crystals belonged to the tetragonal space groupI4122 orI4322, with unit-cell parametersa=b= 121.1,c = 241.7 Å.

Siderophore-binding proteins (SIPs) perform a key role in iron acquisition in multiple organisms. In the genome of the marine bacteriumShewanella frigidimarinaNCIMB 400, the gene tagged as SFRI_RS12295 encodes a protein from this family. Here, the cloning, expression, purification and crystallization of this protein are reported, together with its preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis to 1.35 Å resolution. The SIP crystals belonged to the monoclinic space groupP21, with unit-cell parametersa= 48.04,b= 78.31,c= 67.71 Å, α = 90, β = 99.94, γ = 90°, and are predicted to contain two molecules per asymmetric unit. Structure determination by molecular replacement and the use of previously determined ∼2 Å resolution SIP structures with ∼30% sequence identity as templates are ongoing.

Lipoxygenases constitute a family of nonhaem metal enzymes with catalytic iron or, occasionally, catalytic manganese. Lipoxygenases oxidize polyunsaturated fatty acids with position specificity and stereospecificity to hydroperoxides, which contribute to inflammation and the development of cancer. Little is known about the structural differences between lipoxygenases with Fe or Mn and the metal-selection mechanism. APichia pastorisexpression system was used for the production of the manganese lipoxygenase of the take-all fungus of wheat,Gaeumannomyces graminis. The active enzyme was treated with α-mannosidase, purified to apparent homogeneity and subjected to crystal screening and X-ray diffraction. The crystals diffracted to 2.6 Å resolution and belonged to space groupC2, with unit-cell parametersa= 226.6,b= 50.6,c= 177.92 Å, β = 91.70°.

Full-length SigR fromStreptomyces coelicolorA3(2) was overexpressed inEscherichia coli, purified and submitted to crystallization trials using either polyethylene glycol 3350 or 4000 as a precipitant. X-ray diffraction data were collected to 2.60 Å resolution under cryoconditions using synchrotron X-rays. The crystal packs in space groupP43212, with unit-cell parametersa=b= 42.14,c= 102.02 Å. According to the Matthews coefficient, the crystal asymmetric unit cannot contain the full-length protein. Molecular replacement with the known structures of region 2 and region 4 as independent search models indicates that the crystal contains only the −35 element-binding carboxyl-terminal region 4 of full-length SigR. Mass-spectrometric analysis of the harvested crystal confirms this, suggesting a crystal volume per protein weight (VM) of 2.24 Å3 Da−1and 45.1% solvent content.

RAB11, a member of the Ras superfamily of small G proteins, is involved in the regulation of vesicle trafficking during endosome recycling. Substitution of Ser20 by Val20 in Rab11 [RAB11(S20V)] inhibits its GTP hydrolysis activity and produces a constitutively active GTP-binding form. In this study, the RAB11(S20V) mutant was overexpressed inEscherichia coliwith an engineered C-terminal His tag. RAB11(S20V) was then purified to homogeneity and was crystallized at 293 K. X-ray diffraction data were collected to a resolution of 2.4 Å from a crystal belonging to space groupI4, with unit-cell parametersa = 74.11,b= 74.11,c= 149.44 Å. The asymmetric unit was estimated to contain two molecules of RAB11(S20V).
