High-resolution structure of RNase P protein from Thermotoga maritima.
The structure of RNase P protein from the hyperthermophilic bacterium Thermotoga maritima was determined at 1.2-A resolution by using x-ray crystallography. This protein structure is from an ancestral-type RNase P and bears remarkable similarity to the recently determined structures of RNase P proteins from bacteria that have the distinct, Bacillus type of RNase P. These two types of protein sp...
متن کاملArginine regulation in Thermotoga neapolitana and Thermotoga maritima.
Experimental data and in silico analyses of sequenced bacterial genomes indicate that arginine repressor (ArgR) proteins and their respective target sites are surprisingly well conserved in very diverse bacteria. Arginine regulation therefore constitutes an interesting model system from the study of evolutionary aspects of bacterial regulation. Moreover, arginine repressor molecules are multifu...
متن کاملHydride transfer during catalysis by dihydrofolate reductase from Thermotoga maritima.
DHFR (dihydrofolate reductase) catalyses the metabolically important reduction of 7,8-dihydrofolate by NADPH. DHFR from the hyperthermophilic bacterium Thermotoga maritima (TmDHFR), which shares similarity with DHFR from Escherichia coli, has previously been characterized structurally. Its tertiary structure is similar to that of DHFR from E. coli but it is the only DHFR characterized so far th...
متن کاملReduction of Folate by Dihydrofolate Reductase from Thermotoga maritima.
Mammalian dihydrofolate reductases (DHFRs) catalyze the reduction of folate more efficiently than the equivalent bacterial enzymes do, despite typically having similar efficiencies for the reduction of their natural substrate, dihydrofolate. In contrast, we show here that DHFR from the hyperthermophilic bacterium Thermotoga maritima can catalyze reduction of folate to tetrahydrofolate with an e...
متن کاملThe Thermotoga maritima Trk potassium transporter--from frameshift to function.
The gene for the Thermotoga maritima Trk potassium transporter component TrkA was originally thought to be a frameshift mutation and not to encode a functional protein. However, expression from this gene yielded a complex consisting of two distinct proteins designated TM1088A and -B. Genetic complementation of Escherichia coli mutants unable to transport potassium suggests that TM1088A/B is par...
