Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
LpxD protein modified with an N-terminal His6 tag followed by a one glycine residue linker and the P2A substitution, is constructed and transformed into Escherichia coli Rosetta (DE3)/pLysS Escherichia coli

Crystallization (Commentary)

Crystallization (Comment) Organism
hanging drop/vapor diffusion method. The crystal structure of N-terminally His6-tagged EcLpxD is determined by molecular replacement at 2.6 A resolution, using Chlamydia trachomatis (PDB code: 2IUA) as the model. Comparison of LpxD from Escherichia coli and Chlamydia trachomatis. Attempts to crystallize EcLpxD with UDP-GlcNAc, UDP-3-O-(R-3-hydroxymyristoyl)-R-D-GlcNAc or its product UDP-2,3-diacylglucosamine are unsuccessful Escherichia coli

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
M290A wild-type EcLpxD prefers (R,S)-3-hydroxymyristoyl-ACP over (R,S)-3-hydroxypalmitoyl-ACP by a factor of 3, whereas the M290A mutant has the opposite selectivity. Both wild-type and M290A EcLpxD rescue the conditional lethality of Escherichia coli RL25, a temperature-sensitive strain harboring point mutations in lpxD. Complementation with wild-type EcLpxD restores normal lipid A containing only N-linked hydroxymyristate to RL25 at 42°C, as judged by mass spectrometry, whereas the M290A mutant generates multiple lipid A species containing one or two longer hydroxy fatty acids in place of the usual (3R)-3-hydroxymyristate at positions 2 and 20 Escherichia coli
M292A wild-type EcLpxD prefers (R,S)-3-hydroxymyristoyl-ACP over (R,S)-3-hydroxypalmitoyl-ACP by a factor of 3, mutant enzyme M292A prefers (R,S)-3-hydroxymyristoyl-ACP over (R,S)-3-hydroxypalmitoyl-ACP by a factor of 2.5 Escherichia coli
