Structure and function of Rv0130, a conserved hypothetical protein from Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
A large fraction of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis genome codes for proteins of unknown function. We here report the structure of one of these proteins, Rv0130, solved to a resolution of 1.8 å. The Rv0130 monomer features a single hotdog fold composed of a highly curved beta-sheet on top of a long and a short alpha-helix. Two monomers in turn pack to form a double-hotdog-folded homodimer, simil...
متن کاملMycobacterium tuberculosis conserved hypothetical protein rRv2626c modulates macrophage effector functions.
Secretory proteins of Mycobacterium tuberculosis are the major immunomodulators of the host immune response. Open reading frame (ORF) Rv2626c, encoding a conserved hypothetical protein eliciting a strong humoral immune response in patients with tuberculosis (TB), was shown to be up-regulated upon infection in mice under hypoxic conditions. We now show that recombinant Rv2626c protein (rRv2626c)...
متن کاملCrystal structure of conserved hypothetical protein Aq1575 from Aquifex aeolicus.
The crystal structure of a conserved hypothetical protein, Aq1575, from Aquifex aeolicus has been determined by using x-ray crystallography. The protein belongs to the domain of unknown function DUF28 in the Pfam and PALI databases for which there was no structural information available until now. A structural homology search with the DALI algorithm indicates that this protein has a new fold wi...
متن کاملFunction Prediction and Analysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Hypothetical Proteins
High-throughput biology technologies have yielded complete genome sequences and functional genomics data for several organisms, including crucial microbial pathogens of humans, animals and plants. However, up to 50% of genes within a genome are often labeled "unknown", "uncharacterized" or "hypothetical", limiting our understanding of virulence and pathogenicity of these organisms. Even though ...
متن کاملCrystal Structure of a Conserved Hypothetical Protein MJ0927 from Methanocaldococcus jannaschii Reveals a Novel Quaternary Assembly in the Nif3 Family
A Nif3 family protein of Methanocaldococcus jannaschii, MJ0927, is highly conserved from bacteria to humans. Although several structures of bacterial Nif3 proteins are known, no structure representing archaeal Nif3 has yet been reported. The crystal structure of Methanocaldococcus jannaschii MJ0927 was determined at 2.47 Å resolution to understand the structural differences between the bacteria...
