X-ray crystallographic structure of the Norwalk virus capsid.
Norwalk virus, a noncultivatable human calicivirus, is the major cause of epidemic gastroenteritis in humans. The first x-ray structure of a calicivirus capsid, which consists of 180 copies of a single protein, has been determined by phase extension from a low-resolution electron microscopy structure. The capsid protein has a protruding (P) domain connected by a flexible hinge to a shell (S) do...
متن کاملThe X-ray crystallographic structure of Escherichia coli branching enzyme.
Branching enzyme catalyzes the formation of alpha-1,6 branch points in either glycogen or starch. We report the 2.3-A crystal structure of glycogen branching enzyme from Escherichia coli. The enzyme consists of three major domains, an NH(2)-terminal seven-stranded beta-sandwich domain, a COOH-terminal domain, and a central alpha/beta-barrel domain containing the enzyme active site. While the ce...
متن کاملX-ray Crystallographic Structure of an Artificial β-Sheet Dimer
This paper describes the X-ray crystallographic structure of a designed cyclic beta-sheet peptide that forms a well-defined hydrogen-bonded dimer that mimics beta-sheet dimers formed by proteins. The 54-membered ring macrocyclic peptide (1a) contains molecular template and turn units that induce beta-sheet structure in a heptapeptide strand that forms the dimerization interface. The X-ray cryst...
متن کاملX-ray crystallographic analysis of 9-cis-rhodopsin, a model analogue visual pigment.
Recent progress in high-resolution structural study of rhodopsin has been enabled by a novel selective extraction procedure with rod photoreceptor cells. In this study, we applied the method for rapid and efficient preparation of a purified analogue pigment using bovine rod outer segment membranes with 9-cis-retinal. After complete bleaching of the membranes and subsequent regeneration with the...
متن کاملPreliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of tRNA pseudouridine 55 synthase from the thermophilic eubacterium Thermotoga maritima.
Thermotoga maritima TruB, an enzyme responsible for the formation of pseudouridine in tRNA, has been purified and crystallized by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method in 100 mM citrate pH 3.5, 200 mM Li(2)SO(4), 20% glycerol, 13% PEG 8000. Crystals display orthorhombic symmetry, with unit-cell parameters a = 47.39, b = 83.88, c = 98.72 A, and diffract to 2.0 A resolution using synchrotron r...
