The Activity of Escherichia coli Chaperone SurA Is Regulated by Conformational Changes Involving a Parvulin Domain.
UNLABELLED The periplasmic chaperone SurA is critical for the biogenesis of outer membrane proteins (OMPs) and, thus, the maintenance of membrane integrity in Escherichia coli. The activity of this modular chaperone has been attributed to a core chaperone module, with only minor importance assigned to the two SurA peptidyl-prolyl isomerase (PPIase) domains. In this work, we used synthetic pheno...
متن کاملEnhancement of Solubility and Specific Activity of a Cu/Zn Superoxide Dismutase by Co-expression with a Copper Chaperone in Escherichia coli
Background: Human Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (hSOD1) is an antioxidant enzyme with potential as a therapeutic agent. However, heterologous expression of hSOD1 has remained an issue due to Cu2+ insufficiency at protein active site, leading to low solubility and enzymatic activity.Objectives:The effect of co-expressed human copper chaperone (hCCS) to enhance the solubility and enzymatic act...
متن کاملThe Activity and Specificity of the Outer Membrane Protein Chaperone SurA Are Modulated by a Proline Isomerase Domain
UNLABELLED SurA is a component of the periplasmic chaperone network that plays a central role in biogenesis of integral outer membrane β-barrel proteins (OMPs) in Escherichia coli. Although SurA contains two well-conserved proline isomerase (PPIase) domains, the contribution of these domains to SurA function is unclear. In the present work, we show that defects in OMP assembly caused by mutatio...
متن کاملConformational changes in the expression domain of the Escherichia coli thiM riboswitch
The thiM riboswitch contains an aptamer domain that adaptively binds the coenzyme thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP). The binding of TPP to the aptamer domain induces structural rearrangements that are relayed to a second domain, the so-called expression domain, thereby interfering with gene expression. The recently solved crystal structures of the aptamer domains of the thiM riboswitches in complex ...
متن کاملMaturation of intracellular Escherichia coli communities requires SurA.
Escherichia coli is the most common cause of community-acquired urinary tract infection (UTI). During murine cystitis, uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) utilizes type 1 pili to bind and invade superficial bladder epithelial cells. UPEC then replicates within to form intracellular bacterial communities (IBCs), a process whose genetic determinants are as yet undefined. In this study, we investigated t...
