Drosophila Rrp1 domain structure as defined by limited proteolysis and biophysical analyses.
Drosophila Rrp1 is a DNA repair nuclease whose C-terminal region shares extensive homology with Escherichia coli exonuclease III, has nuclease activity, and provides resistance to oxidative and alkylating agents in repair-deficient E. coli strains. The N-terminal 421 amino acid region of Rrp1, which binds and renatures homologous single-stranded DNA, does not share homology with any known prote...
متن کاملProbing protein structure by limited proteolysis.
Limited proteolysis experiments can be successfully used to probe conformational features of proteins. In a number of studies it has been demonstrated that the sites of limited proteolysis along the polypeptide chain of a protein are characterized by enhanced backbone flexibility, implying that proteolytic probes can pinpoint the sites of local unfolding in a protein chain. Limited proteolysis ...
متن کاملStructural Organization of Mammalian Prions as Probed by Limited Proteolysis
Elucidation of the structure of PrP(Sc) continues to be one major challenge in prion research. The mechanism of propagation of these infectious agents will not be understood until their structure is solved. Given that high resolution techniques such as NMR or X-ray crystallography cannot be used, a number of lower resolution analytical approaches have been attempted. Thus, limited proteolysis h...
متن کاملThe TyrR protein of Escherichia coli, analysis by limited proteolysis of domain structure and ligand-mediated conformational changes.
The TyrR protein of Escherichia coli K12 is a homodimer containing 513 amino acids/subunit. This protein is important in the transcriptional regulation of several genes whose protein products catalyze steps in aromatic amino acid biosynthesis or transport. Methods were developed for efficiently purifying the TyrR protein to apparent homogeneity. We analyzed the pattern of cleavage of the TyrR p...
متن کاملProbing Conformational Feature of a Recombinant Pyruvate Kinase by Limited Proteolysis
Pyruvate kinase is a key enzyme in glycolytic pathway that catalyzes the transphosphorylation between phosphoenolpyruvate and ADP to yield ATP and Pyruvate. Geobacillus stearothermophillus has a stable pyruvate kinase with determined crystal structure that composed of four separate domains. Given that limited proteolysis experiments can be successfully used to probe conformational features of p...
