Structural basis for thermostability of beta-glycosidase from the thermophilic eubacterium Thermus nonproteolyticus HG102.

چکیده
The three-dimensional structure of a thermostable beta-glycosidase (Gly(Tn)) from the thermophilic eubacterium Thermus nonproteolyticus HG102 was determined at a resolution of 2.4 A. The core of the structure adopts the (betaalpha)(8) barrel fold. The sequence alignments and the positions of the two Glu residues in the active center indicate that Gly(Tn) belongs to the glycosyl hydrolases of retaining family 1. We have analyzed the structural features of Gly(Tn) related to the thermostability and compared its structure with those of other mesophilic glycosidases from plants, eubacteria, and hyperthermophilic enzymes from archaea. Several possible features contributing to the thermostability of Gly(Tn) were elucidated.

Overexpression, purification, crystallization and preliminary crystallographic studies on a thermostable beta-glycosidase from Thermus nonproteolyticus HG102.
A thermostable beta-glycosidase (Tn-gly) from Thermus nonproteolyticus HG102 has been cloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant enzyme, with a molecular mass of 48.9 kDa, was purified to homogeneity. It can hydrolyze a wide range of oligosaccharides and perform transglycosylation. Crystals of the recombinant enzyme were grown by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion technique wi...
متن کاملExport of Thermus thermophilus cytoplasmic beta-glycosidase via the E. coli Tat pathway.
The Tat pathway is distinct from the Sec machinery given its unusual capacity to export folded proteins, which contain a twin-arginine (RR) signal peptide, across the plasma membrane. The functionality of the Tat pathway has been demonstrated for several Gram-negative and Gram-positive mesophilic bacteria. To assess the specificity of the Tat system, and to analyze the capacity of a mesophilic ...

Endo-1,4-beta-xylanase (EC 3.2.1.8) was isolated from the culture supernatant of Thermotoga sp. strain FjSS3-B.1, an extremely thermophilic anaerobic eubacterium which grows optimally at 80 degrees C. Activity was purified 165-fold by anion-exchange and hydroxyapatite chromatography. The enzyme has an Mr of 31,000 as determined by SDS/PAGE and 35,000 by analytical gel filtration. The optima for...
متن کاملGene cloning and enzymatic properties of hyperthermostable beta-glycosidase from Thermus thermophilus HJ6.
A microorganism (strain HJ6) producing extracellular beta-glycosidase was isolated from a hot springs located in Arima-cho, Hyogo, Japan. The cells were long-rods (2-4 microm) about 0.4 microm in diameter, and formed yellow-colored colonies, like most other strains of the genus Thermus. The pH and temperature for optimal growth were 6.5 and 80 degrees C. Thus, the HJ6 strain displayed a higher ...
