2.0 A structure of the catalytic domain of RluD (residues 77326). The catalytic domain folds into a mainly antiparallel beta-sheet flanked by several loops and helices. A positively charged cleft that presumably binds RNA leads to the conserved Asp139. The RluD N-terminal S4 domain, connected by a flexible linker, is disordered in our structure. RluD is very similar in both catalytic domain structure and active site arrangement to the pseudouridine synthases RsuA, TruB, and TruA
crystallization of selenomethionine-substituted RluD by the hanging-drop method, crystals diffract to 1.9 A and belong to space group P4(3)2(1)2, with unit cell parameters a = b = 75.14, c = 181.81 A

crystals of full-length RluD are grown at 20°C using the hanging drop method. The S4 domain of RluD appears to be highly flexible or unfolded and is completely invisible in the electron density map
crystals of SeMet-labeled DELTARluD are obtained under oil by the microbatch method, crystal structure of the catalytic module of RluD (residues 68326, DELTARluD) refined at 1.8 A to a final R-factor of 21.8%. DELTARluD is a monomeric enzyme having an overall mixed alpha/beta fold. The DELTARluD molecule consists of two subdomains, a catalytic subdomain and C-terminal subdomain with the RNA-binding cleft formed by loops extending from the catalytic sub-domain.
