Both maltose-binding protein and ATP are required for nucleotide-binding domain closure in the intact maltose ABC transporter.
The maltose transporter MalFGK(2) of Escherichia coli is a member of the ATP-binding cassette superfamily. A periplasmic maltose-binding protein (MBP) delivers maltose to MalFGK(2) and stimulates its ATPase activity. Site-directed spin labeling EPR spectroscopy was used to study the opening and closing of the nucleotide-binding interface of MalFGK(2) during the catalytic cycle. In the intact tr...
متن کاملDependence of maltose transport and chemotaxis on the amount of maltose-binding protein.
Maltose-binding protein (MBP) is essential for maltose transport and chemotaxis in Escherichia coli. To perform these functions it must interact with two sets of cytoplasmic membrane proteins, the MalFGK transport complex and the chemotactic signal transducer Tar. MBP is present at high concentrations, on the order of 1 mM, in the periplasm of maltose-induced or malTc constitutive cells. To det...
متن کاملMaltose-binding protein as a solubility enhancer.
1. Introduction A major impediment to the production of recombinant proteins in Escheri-chia coli is their tendency to accumulate in the form of insoluble and biologically inactive aggregates known as inclusion bodies. Although it is sometimes possible to convert aggregated material into native, biologically-active protein , this is a time consuming, labor-intensive, costly, and uncertain under...
متن کاملEngineered Derivatives of Maltose-Binding Protein
Maltose-binding protein (MBP), a member of the periplasmic binding protein family of Gram negative bacteria, is a versatile substrate for protein engineering. In common with other periplasmic proteins, it is extremely protease resistant, and it can fold properly in both the cytoplasmic and periplasmic compartments. It binds a variety of glucose-14-glucose polysaccharides, from maltose and lon...
متن کاملProkaryotic Soluble Overexpression and Purification of Human VEGF165 by Fusion to a Maltose Binding Protein Tag
Human vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a key regulator of angiogenesis and plays a central role in the process of tumor growth and metastatic dissemination. Escherichia coli is one of the most common expression systems used for the production of recombinant proteins; however, expression of human VEGF in E. coli has proven difficult because the E. coli-expressed VEGF tends to be misf...
