Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
recombinant expression of His-tagged wild-type and mutant enzymes in Escherichia coli strain BL21(DE3) Sphingomonas paucimobilis

Crystallization (Commentary)

Crystallization (Comment) Organism
purified His-tagged recombinant wild-type and mutant enzymes in complex with cofactor and substrates, wild-type enzyme from 10 mM Tris, pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, and 0.025 mM or 0.250 mM pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, different conditions for the mutants, overview. Mass spectroscopic structure analysis, overview Sphingomonas paucimobilis

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
N100C site-directed mutagenesis, the mutation mimics the wild-type human enzyme and is fully active, crystal structure analysis Sphingomonas paucimobilis
N100W site-directed mutagenesis, the mutation mimics the mutation in the human enzyme causing hereditary sensory autonomic neuropathy type 1, the mutant shows reduced activity compared to the wild-type enzyme. The mutation affects the chemistry of the pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, crystal structure analysis Sphingomonas paucimobilis
N100Y site-directed mutagenesis, N100Y is less able to stabilize a quinonoid intermediate, the mutation mimics the mutation in the human enzyme causing hereditary sensory autonomic neuropathy type 1, the mutant shows reduced activity compared to the wild-type enzyme. The mutation affects the chemistry of the pyridoxal 5'-phosphate. The L-Ser external aldimine structure N100Y reveals significant differences that hinder the movement of a catalytically important Arg378 residue into the active site, crystal structure analysis Sphingomonas paucimobilis
R378A site-directed mutagenesis, crystal structure analysis, the mutant is less able to stabilize a quinonoid intermediate Sphingomonas paucimobilis
R378N site-directed mutagenesis, crystal structure analysis Sphingomonas paucimobilis
