Crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of human eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A (eIF-5A).
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A (eIF-5A) is universally found in all eukaryotic cells. It is the only protein in nature known to contain the unusual amino acid hypusine, a post-translationally modified lysine. Recombinant human eIF-5A was crystallized by the hanging-drop vapor diffusion method. Crystals were grown at 291 K using (NH4)2SO4 as precipitant. Diffraction data were obtain...
متن کاملSingle-Particle Cryo-EM at Crystallographic Resolution
Until only a few years ago, single-particle electron cryo-microscopy (cryo-EM) was usually not the first choice for many structural biologists due to its limited resolution in the range of nanometer to subnanometer. Now, this method rivals X-ray crystallography in terms of resolution and can be used to determine atomic structures of macromolecules that are either refractory to crystallization o...
متن کاملFunctional reconstitution of halorhodopsin. Properties of halorhodopsin-containing proteoliposomes.
A one-step purification method for halorhodopsin was developed. Functional proteoliposomes were prepared from this preparation using cholate, which is removed by dialysis in the presence of asolectin or the polar halobacterial lipids. Light-induced outward directed transport of chloride by halorhodopsin was followed by measuring passive proton efflux in the presence of uncoupler; initial rates ...
متن کاملOn the direct determination of three-dimensional crystallographic phases at low resolution: crambin at 6 A.
Using a pseudo-atom approach, the three-dimensional crystallographic phases for the protein crambin (a = 40.76, b = 18.49, c = 22.33 A, beta = 90.61 degrees, space group P2(1)) were determined to 6 A by direct methods. First, the centrosymmetric h0l set was assigned phases by symbolic addition, and the initial solution was then refined by Fourier methods. Phase values of strong reflections were...
متن کاملCrystal structures of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A from Methanococcus jannaschii at 1.8 A resolution.
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A (eIF-5A) is a ubiquitous protein found in all eukaryotic cells. The protein is closely associated with cell proliferation in the G1-S stage of the cell cycle. Recent findings show that the eIF-5A proteins are highly expressed in tumor cells and act as a cofactor of the Rev protein in HIV-1-infected cells. The mature eIF is the only protein known to ha...
