Mapping enzyme active sites in complex proteomes.
Genome sequencing projects have uncovered many novel enzymes and enzyme classes for which knowledge of active site structure and mechanism is limited. To facilitate mechanistic investigations of the numerous enzymes encoded by prokaryotic and eukaryotic genomes, new methods are needed to analyze enzyme function in samples of high biocomplexity. Here, we describe a general strategy for profiling...
متن کاملStructural and kinetic basis for substrate selectivity in Populus tremuloides sinapyl alcohol dehydrogenase.
We describe the three-dimensional structure of sinapyl alcohol dehydrogenase (SAD) from Populus tremuloides (aspen), a member of the NADP(H)-dependent dehydrogenase family that catalyzes the last reductive step in the formation of monolignols. The active site topology revealed by the crystal structure substantiates kinetic results indicating that SAD maintains highest specificity for the substr...
متن کاملAutomatic classification of highly related Malate Dehydrogenase and L-Lactate Dehydrogenase based on 3D-pattern of active sites
Accurate protein function prediction is an important subject in bioinformatics, especially wheresequentially and structurally similar proteins have different functions. Malate dehydrogenaseand L-lactate dehydrogenase are two evolutionary related enzymes, which exist in a widevariety of organisms. These enzymes are sequentially and structurally similar and sharecommon active site residues, spati...
متن کاملNew Aldehyde Tag Sequences Identified by Screening Formylglycine Generating Enzymes in Vitro and in Vivo
Formylglycine generating enzyme (FGE) performs a critical posttranslational modification of type I sulfatases, converting cysteine within the motif CxPxR to the aldehyde-bearing residue formylglycine (FGly). This concise motif can be installed within heterologous proteins as a genetically encoded "aldehyde tag" for site-specific labeling with aminooxy- or hydrazide-functionalized probes. In thi...
متن کاملAnti-Inflammatory Activities of Cinnamomum cassia Constituents In Vitro and In Vivo
We have investigated the anti-inflammatory effects of Cinnamomum cassia constituents (cinnamic aldehyde, cinnamic alcohol, cinnamic acid, and coumarin) using lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated mouse macrophage (RAW264.7) and carrageenan (Carr)-induced mouse paw edema model. When RAW264.7 macrophages were treated with cinnamic aldehyde together with LPS, a significant concentration-dependent in...
