Purification, crystallization, and preliminary X-ray data for porcine fumarase.

چکیده
Single crystals of fumarase purified from pig heart have been prepared from solutions containing polyethylene glycol. The crystals give diffraction data corresponding to Bragg spacings of 2.0 A and contain a single subunit of the enzyme in the asymmetric unit of the C222 unit cell. Therefore, the subunits of this tetrameric molecule are arranged with the point symmetry group 222. The present purification scheme and studies of the NH2-terminal amino acid sequences suggest that only a single form of the enzyme is present, and it is thought to be the mitochondrial enzyme.

Cloning, expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of recombinant human fumarase.
Human fumarase (HsFH) is a well-known citric acid cycle enzyme and is therefore a key component in energy metabolism. Genetic studies on human patients have shown that polymorphisms in the fumarase gene are responsible for diseases such as hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer. As a first step in unravelling the molecular basis of the mechanism of fumarase deficiency in genetic disord...
متن کاملCloning, expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of DapA (Rv2753c) from Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Corrigendum
Dihydrodipicolinate synthase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (DHDPS, DapA, Rv2753c) has been cloned, heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli, purified using standard chromatographic techniques and crystallized in a monoclinic crystal form. Preliminary diffraction data analysis suggests the presence of two independent tetramers in the asymmetric unit in almost the same relative orientation.
متن کاملCloning, expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of the regulator AcrR from Escherichia coli.
This paper describes the cloning, expression, purification and preliminary X-ray data analysis of the AcrR regulatory protein. The Escherichia coli AcrR is a member of the TetR family of transcriptional regulators. It regulates the expression of the AcrAB multidrug transporter. Recombinant AcrR with a 6xHis tag at the C-terminus was expressed in E. coli and purified by metal-affinity chromatogr...
متن کاملExpression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of alpha-L-arabinofuranosidase B from Aspergillus kawachii.
Alpha-L-Arabinofuranosidase (EC 3.2.1.55) is one of the hemicellulases that cleave the glycosidic bonds between L-arabinofuranoside side chains and various oligosaccharides. In this study, the first crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of alpha-L-arabinofuranosidase B from Aspergillus kawachii IFO4308 (AkAbfB), a family 54 glycoside hydrolase, is described. Recombinant AkAbfB was expr...
