Site-directed mutagenesis of proposed active-site residues of penicillin-binding protein 5 from Escherichia coli.
Alignment of the amino acid sequence of penicillin-binding protein 5 (PBP5) with the sequences of other members of the family of active-site-serine penicillin-interacting enzymes predicted the residues playing a role in the catalytic mechanism of PBP5. Apart from the active-site (Ser44), Lys47, Ser110-Gly-Asn, Asp175 and Lys213-Thr-Gly were identified as the residues making up the conserved box...
متن کاملThe unique ligand-binding pocket for the human prostacyclin receptor. Site-directed mutagenesis and molecular modeling.
The human prostacyclin receptor is a seven-transmembrane alpha-helical G-protein coupled receptor, which plays important roles in both vascular smooth muscle relaxation as well as prevention of blood coagulation. The position of the native ligand-binding pocket for prostacyclin as well as other derivatives of the 20-carbon eicosanoid, arachidonic acid, has yet to be determined. Through the use ...

Academic Dissertation To be presented for public criticism, with the permission of the Faculty of Science of the (1998) Disulfide bonding and cysteine accessibility in the α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid receptor subunit GluRD. Implications for redox modulation of glutamate receptors. receptors and bacterial periplasmic amino acid-binding proteins share the ionic mechanism ...
متن کاملCrystallization of the oligopeptide-binding protein AppA from Bacillus subtilis.
AppA is the membrane-anchored extracellular receptor component of an ABC transporter responsible for the uptake of oligopeptides into Bacillus subtilis. AppA has been overexpressed as a cleavable maltose-binding protein fusion in Escherichia coli. Following removal of the fusion portion, AppA has been crystallized from morpholinoethanesulfonic acid-buffered solutions at pH 6.5 containing polyet...
متن کاملStructure-function studies on human retinol-binding protein using site-directed mutagenesis.
Retinol-binding protein (RBP) transports vitamin A in the plasma. It consists of eight anti-parallel beta-strands (A to H) that fold to form an orthogonal barrel. The loops connecting the strands A and B, C and D, and E and F form the entrance to the binding site in the barrel. The retinol molecule is found deep inside this barrel. Apart from its specific interaction with retinol, RBP is involv...
