Structure of the catalytic trimer of Methanococcus jannaschii aspartate transcarbamoylase in an orthorhombic crystal form.
Crystals of the catalytic subunit of Methanococcus jannaschii aspartate transcarbamoylase in an orthorhombic crystal form contain four crystallographically independent trimers which associate in pairs to form stable staggered complexes that are similar to each other and to a previously determined monoclinic C2 form. Each subunit has a sulfate in the central channel. The catalytic subunits in th...
متن کاملCrystal structure of the catalytic trimer of Methanococcus jannaschii aspartate transcarbamoylase.
The catalytic trimer of Methanococcus jannaschii aspartate transcarbamoylase is extremely heat stable, maintaining 75% of its activity after heat treatment for 60 min at 75 degrees C. We undertook its structural analysis in order to understand the molecular basis of its thermostability and gain insight on how its catalytic function adapts to high temperature. Several structural elements potenti...
متن کاملCrystallization and structure determination of the catalytic trimer of Methanococcus jannaschii aspartate transcarbamoylase.
Aspartate transcarbamoylase (ATCase) catalyzes the first step in the pyrimidine biosynthetic pathway, the reaction between carbamoyl phosphate and L-aspartate to form N-carbamoyl-L-aspartate and phosphate. The structural analysis of the ATCase catalytic trimer from Methanococcus jannaschii, a unicellular thermophilic archaeabacterium, has been undertaken in order to gain insight into the struct...
متن کاملStructure of agkistrodotoxin in an orthorhombic crystal form with six molecules per asymmetric unit.
The structure of agkistrodotoxin crystallized under basic conditions has been determined at 2.8 A resolution by the molecular-replacement technique and refined to a crystallographic R factor of 0.194 and a free R factor of 0.260 with good stereochemistry. The molecular packing in the crystal differs from other PLA(2)s. The six molecules in the asymmetric unit form three dimers linked by Ca(2+) ...
متن کاملthe role of thematic structure in comprehending spoken language
in fact this study is concerned with the relationship between the variation in thematice structure and the comprehension of spoken language. so the study focused on the following questions: 1. is there any relationship between thematic structure and the comprehension of spoken language? 2. which of the themes would have greated thematic force and be easier for the subjects to comprehend? accord...
