We have used site-specific heavy-atom labelling and X-ray diffraction to localize single amino acid residues in the cytoplasmic domain of the integral membrane protein rhodopsin, the dim-light photoreceptor of retinal vertebrate rod cells. Two-dimensional orthorhombic crystals of the space group p22(1)2(1) (a=59.5(+/-1) A and b=82.7(+/-1.5) A) were produced from detergent-solubilized, partially delipidated rhodopsin. To obtain milligram amounts of two-dimensional crystals, which are required for X-ray diffraction, the yield of the crystalline material was significantly increased by reconstitution of rhodopsin in the presence of cholesterol (1:2 to 1:10 mol/mol) and by adding polar organic solvents to the dialysis buffer. The native cysteine residues C140 and C316 were then selectively labelled with mercury using the sulphydryl-specific reagent p-chloromercuribenzoate (1.6-2.1 mol Hg per mol rhodopsin). The labelling did not affect the unit cell dimensions. Optical absorption spectra of labelled and native two-dimensional rhodopsin crystals showed the characteristic 11-cis-retinal peak at 498 nm, which corresponds to the dark state of rhodopsin. The in-plane position of the mercury label was calculated at 9.5 A resolution from the intensity differences in the X-ray diffraction patterns of labelled and native crystals using Fourier difference methods and the phase information from electron crystallography. The label positions were in excellent agreement with the positions of C140 at the cytoplasmic end of helix 3 and of C316 in the cytoplasmic helix 8 recently obtained from three-dimensional rhodopsin crystals. Whereas these high-resolution diffraction studies were performed under cryogenic conditions (100 K), our results were obtained at room temperature with fully hydrated membranes and in the absence of loop-loop crystal contacts. To study the structural changes of the cytoplasmic loops involved in activation and signal transduction, our more physiological conditions offer important advantages. Furthermore, the localization of C316 is the first direct proof that the electron density on top of helix 1 observed by cryo-electron microscopy is a part of the C-terminal loop. Our approach is of particular interest for investigations of other membrane proteins, for which 3D crystals are not available. Structural constraints from heavy-atom labels at strategic sites enable the assignment of a position in the amino acid sequence to features visible in a low-resolution density map and the study of conformational changes associated with different functional states of the membrane protein.  相似文献

Crystals of glutathione-S-transferase (GST)-fused protein containing the DNA-binding domain of DNA replication-related element-binding factor, DREF, were obtained under crystallization conditions similar to those for GST. Preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis revealed that crystals of the GST-fused protein belong to space group P6(1)22 or P6(5)22 with unit cell dimensions a = b = 140.4 A, c = 93.5 A and gamma = 120 degrees, having one molecule in the crystallographic asymmetric unit. The crystals diffract to 2.5 A resolution. The cell dimensions are related to those of GST crystals thus far reported. Crystallization of the DNA-binding domain that was cleaved from the fused protein by thrombin was also carried out using several methods under numerous conditions, but efforts to produce well-ordered large crystals were unsuccessful. A possible application of GST-fusion proteins for small target proteins or domains to obtain crystals suitable for X-ray structure determination is proposed.  相似文献

A number of the chimeric constructs with spectrin SH3 domain were designed for structural and thermodynamic studies of protein self-assembly and protein-ligand interactions. SH3 domains, components of many regulatory proteins, operate through weak interactions with proline-rich regions of polypeptide chains. The recombinant construct (WT-CIIA) studied in this work was constructed by linking the peptide ligand PPPVPPYSAG to the domain C-terminus via a long 12-residue linker to increase the affinity of this ligand for the spectrin domain, thereby ensuring a stable positioning of the polyproline helix to the conserved ligand-binding site in orientation II, which is regarded as untypical of the interaction between this domain and oligopeptides. A comparison of fluorescence spectra of the initial domain and the recombinant protein WT-CIIA suggests that the ligand sticks to the conservative binding site. However, analysis of the equilibrium urea-induced unfolding has demonstrated that this is an unstable contact, which leads to a two-stage unfolding of the chimeric protein. The protein WT-CIIA was crystallized; a set of X-ray diffraction data with a resolution of 1.75 Å was recorded from individual crystals. A preliminary analysis of these diffraction data has demonstrated that the crystals belong to space group P32 with the following unit cell parameters: a = b = 36.39, c = 112.17 Å, a = β = 90.0, and γ = 120.0.  相似文献

X-ray diffraction quality crystals have been obtained from a complex between interferon γ and the extracellular domain of its high-affinity cell surface receptor. The crystals were obtained from interferon γ/interferon γ receptor complexes purified by size exclusion chromatography. Diffraction quality crystals required analyzing these complex samples by isoelectric focusing gels to select purified complex fractions devoid of unbound interferon γ. These studies used interferon γ receptor engineered with an eight amino acid N-terminal deletion to eliminate heterogeneity generated due to proteolytic cleavage. In addition, the receptor was expressed in an E. coli secretion cell line which eliminated the need to refold the protein. Hexagonal crystals were grown from 1.6 M ammonium phosphate solutions and belong to a spacegroup of P6522 with unit cell dimensions a = 145.9 Å and c = 180.3 Å. These crystals diffract to at least 2.9 Å resolution when exposed to synchrotron radiation. SDS PAGE analysis of the crystals demonstrated that both interferon γ and the receptor were present. Analysis of the x-ray diffraction data revealed that the crystals contain complexes with a stoichiometry of 2:1 receptor: ligand within the crystallographic asymmetric unit and consist of approximately 55% solvent. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.  相似文献

Two different natural protease inhibitors, the squash inhibitor MCEI III and the third domain of turkey ovomucoid inhibitor OMTKY3, were crystallized in complexes with porcine pancreatic elastase (PPE). About 700 conditions were screened altogether. Crystals of the complex between MCEI III and PPE were grown in citrate buffer with and without ammonium acetate. X-ray diffraction data were collected to 1.9 angstroms resolution at room temperature using synchrotron radiation. The crystals belong to space group P2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 49.17, b = 44.59, c = 67.08 angstroms, beta = 110.97 degrees. Crystals of the OMTKY3/PPE complex were obtained in the presence of ammonium sulfate, MES buffer and polyethylene glycol monomethylether (PEG). These crystals of this complex diffracted to 2.1 angstroms resolution and belongs to space group I222, with unit-cell parameters a = 84.58, b = 84.61, c = 89.92 angstroms and diffracted to 2.2 angstroms resolution. The diffraction data were collected using a conventional rotating anode X-ray generator at room temperature. In both cases the presence of inhibitor in the crystals was confirmed by crystallography.  相似文献

The adenovirus fiber protein is used for attachment of the virus to a specific receptor on the cell surface. Structurally, the protein consists of a long, thin shaft that protrudes from the vertex of the virus capsid and terminates in a globular domain termed the knob. To verify that the knob is the domain which interacts with the cellular receptor, we have cloned and expressed the knob from adenovirus type 5 together with a single repeat of the shaft in Escherichia coli. The protein was purified by conventional chromatography and functionally characterized for its interaction with the adenovirus receptor. The recombinant knob domain bound about 4,700 sites per HeLa cell with an affinity of 3 x 10(9) M-1 and blocked adenovirus infection of human cells. Antibodies raised against the knob also blocked virus infection. By gel filtration and X-ray diffraction analysis of protein crystals, the knob was shown to consist of a homotrimer of 21-kDa subunits. The results confirm that the trimeric knob is the ligand for attachment to the adenovirus receptor.  相似文献

The Fab fragment of a mouse immunoglobulin G1, complexed with a single IgG-binding domain from streptococcal protein G, has been crystallized in a form suitable for analysis by X-ray diffraction. The needle-shaped crystals were grown from polyethylene glycol 4000 using vapour diffusion methods and diffract to 2.3 A resolution. The space group is P2(1)2(1)2(1) (a = 64.5 A, b = 70.5 A and c = 120.1 A), with one Fab-protein G domain complex in the asymmetric unit. Solution of the three-dimensional structure of the complex will permit a detailed analysis of the molecular interactions between protein G and the Fab portion of IgG.  相似文献

The epsilon subunit of the F0F1-ATPase from Escherichia coli has been expressed in E. coli as a fusion protein with glutathione S-transferase from the parasitic helminth Schistosoma japonicum. The epsilon subunit released by thrombin treatment of the purified fusion protein carried two amino acid changes, A1G and M2S, and was obtained in a yield of about five milligrams per litre of cultured cells. The two amino acid changes were shown not to affect function. The protein has been crystallized in a form suitable for X-ray diffraction structure analysis. The crystals are hexagonal, space group P6(1)22 (or P6(5)22), with a = b = 94.9 A, c = 57.1 A and gamma = 120 degrees. The diffraction from small crystals extends to at least 2.9 A resolution.  相似文献
