Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
cloning of AH gene in Escherichia coli strain JM109, expression of wild-type enzyme, active-site variants of the enzyme, and of the nitrate reductase N-terminal chaperone binding site NarG-fusion enzyme in Escherichia coli strain BL21(DE3) Syntrophotalea acetylenica

Crystallization (Commentary)

Crystallization (Comment) Organism
purified recombinant NarG-fusion acetylene hydratase, sitting and hanging drop vapor diffusion methods, small crystals after 3 to 4 weeks, 6.5-10 mg/ml protein in solution containing 5 mM HEPES-NaOH, pH 7.5, and 7.5 mM Na2S2O4, cryoprotection by 20% v/v 2-methyl-2,4-pentanediol, X-ray diffraction structure determination and analysis Syntrophotalea acetylenica

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
D13E site-directed mutagenesis, almost inactive mutant Syntrophotalea acetylenica
I142A site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant shows a marked loss of activity compared to the wild-type enzyme Syntrophotalea acetylenica
K48A site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant shows unaltered activity compared to the wild-type enzyme Syntrophotalea acetylenica
additional information construction of active-site variants, and of a fusion protein of the N-terminal chaperone binding site of the Escherichia coli nitrate reductase NarG to the AH gene improving the yield and activity of AH and its variants significantly, overview Syntrophotalea acetylenica

acetylene + H2O the active site residues Asp13, Lys48, and Ile142 are involved in catalysis. Asp13 close to W(IV) coordinates two molybdopterin-guanosine-dinucleotide ligands, Lys48 couples the [4Fe-4S] cluster to the W site, and Ile142 is part of a hydrophobic ring at the end of the substrate access channel designed to accommodate the substrate acetylene Syntrophotalea acetylenica acetaldehyde
