    Description: The three-dimensional structure of a 70-kilodalton amino terminally truncated form of human topoisomerase I in complex with a 22-base pair duplex oligonucleotide, determined to a resolution of 2.8 angstroms, reveals all of the structural elements of the enzyme that contact DNA. The linker region that connects the central core of the enzyme to the carboxyl-terminal domain assumes a coiled-coil configuration and protrudes away from the remainder of the enzyme. The positively charged DNA-proximal surface of the linker makes only a few contacts with the DNA downstream of the cleavage site. In combination with the crystal structures of the reconstituted human topoisomerase I before and after DNA cleavage, this information suggests which amino acid residues are involved in catalyzing phosphodiester bond breakage and religation. The structures also lead to the proposal that the topoisomerization step occurs by a mechanism termed "controlled rotation."〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Stewart, L -- Redinbo, M R -- Qiu, X -- Hol, W G -- Champoux, J J -- CA65656/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- GM16713/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM49156/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1998 Mar 6;279(5356):1534-41.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Biomolecular Structure Center and Department of Biological Structure, School of Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle, WA 98195-7742, USA. emerald_biostructures@rocketmail.com〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9488652" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Topoisomerases I promote the relaxation of DNA superhelical tension by introducing a transient single-stranded break in duplex DNA and are vital for the processes of replication, transcription, and recombination. The crystal structures at 2.1 and 2.5 angstrom resolution of reconstituted human topoisomerase I comprising the core and carboxyl-terminal domains in covalent and noncovalent complexes with 22-base pair DNA duplexes reveal an enzyme that "clamps" around essentially B-form DNA. The core domain and the first eight residues of the carboxyl-terminal domain of the enzyme, including the active-site nucleophile tyrosine-723, share significant structural similarity with the bacteriophage family of DNA integrases. A binding mode for the anticancer drug camptothecin is proposed on the basis of chemical and biochemical information combined with these three-dimensional structures of topoisomerase I-DNA complexes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Redinbo, M R -- Stewart, L -- Kuhn, P -- Champoux, J J -- Hol, W G -- CA65656/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- GM49156/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1998 Mar 6;279(5356):1504-13.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Biomolecular Structure Center and Department of Biological Structure, Box 357742, School of Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle, WA 98195, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9488644" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The highly symmetric pyruvate dehydrogenase multienzyme complexes have molecular masses ranging from 5 to 10 million daltons. They consist of numerous copies of three different enzymes: pyruvate dehydrogenase, dihydrolipoyl transacetylase, and lipoamide dehydrogenase. The three-dimensional crystal structure of the catalytic domain of Azotobacter vinelandii dihydrolipoyl transacetylase has been determined at 2.6 angstrom (A) resolution. Eight trimers assemble as a hollow truncated cube with an edge of 125 A, forming the core of the multienzyme complex. Coenzyme A must enter the 29 A long active site channel from the inside of the cube, and lipoamide must enter from the outside. The trimer of the catalytic domain of dihydrolipoyl transacetylase has a topology identical to chloramphenicol acetyl transferase. The atomic structure of the 24-subunit cube core provides a framework for understanding all pyruvate dehydrogenase and related multienzyme complexes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Mattevi, A -- Obmolova, G -- Schulze, E -- Kalk, K H -- Westphal, A H -- de Kok, A -- Hol, W G -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1992 Mar 20;255(5051):1544-50.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, University of Groningen, The Netherlands.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1549782" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A protein crystal structure is usually described by one single structure, which largely omits the dynamical behavior of the molecule. A molecular dynamics method with a time-averaged crystallographic restraint was used to overcome this limitation. This method yields an ensemble of structures in which all possible thermal motions are allowed, that is, in additional to isotropic distributions, anisotropic and anharmonic positional distributions occur as well. In the case of bovine pancreatic phospholipase A2, this description markedly improves agreement with the observed x-ray diffraction data compared to the results of the classical one-model structure description. Time-averaged crystallographically restrained molecular dynamics reveals large mobilities in the loops involved in lipid bilayer association.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gros, P -- van Gunsteren, W F -- Hol, W G -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Sep 7;249(4973):1149-52.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉BIOSON Research Institute, University of Groningen, The Netherlands.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2396108" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The Vibrio cholerae bacterium causes devastating diarrhea when it infects the human intestine. The key event is adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-ribosylation of the human signaling protein GSalpha, catalyzed by the cholera toxin A1 subunit (CTA1). This reaction is allosterically activated by human ADP-ribosylation factors (ARFs), a family of essential and ubiquitous G proteins. Crystal structures of a CTA1:ARF6-GTP (guanosine triphosphate) complex reveal that binding of the human activator elicits dramatic changes in CTA1 loop regions that allow nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) to bind to the active site. The extensive toxin:ARF-GTP interface surface mimics ARF-GTP recognition of normal cellular protein partners, which suggests that the toxin has evolved to exploit promiscuous binding properties of ARFs.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉O'Neal, Claire J -- Jobling, Michael G -- Holmes, Randall K -- Hol, Wim G J -- AI-31940/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI-34501/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2005 Aug 12;309(5737):1093-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, University of Washington, Seattle, WA 98195, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16099990" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Members of the chaperonin-10 (cpn10) protein family, also called heat shock protein 10 and in Escherichia coli GroES, play an important role in ensuring the proper folding of many proteins. The crystal structure of the Mycobacterium leprae cpn10 (Ml-cpn10) oligomer has been elucidated at a resolution of 3.5 angstroms. The architecture of the Ml-cpn10 heptamer resembles a dome with an oculus in its roof. The inner surface of the dome is hydrophilic and highly charged. A flexible region, known to interact with cpn60, extends from the lower rim of the dome. With the structure of a cpn10 heptamer now revealed and the structure of the E. coli GroEL previously known, models of cpn10:cpn60 and GroEL:GroES complexes are proposed.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Mande, S C -- Mehra, V -- Bloom, B R -- Hol, W G -- AI07118/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI23545/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jan 12;271(5246):203-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biological Structure, University of Washington, Seattle 98195, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8539620" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Notes: Mutations in the human `protective protein' result in the human lysosomal storage disease galactosialidosis. The structure of the human `protective protein' has been determined using X-ray crystallography to a resolution of 2.2 Å. Initial phases were obtained from molecular replacement calculations. A very partial search model comprising 30% of the scattering mass, was constructed from the atomic model of the wheat serine carboxypeptidase. This truncated probe was used to find the position of two monomers in the asymmetric unit. Subsequently, `bootstrapping' cycles, consisting of twofold averaging and model expansion, retrieved the electron density for residues initially missing. In particular, it proved possible to add a domain (more than 110 residues) to the initial partial search model. In total, 314 residues per asymmetric unit were added to the 588 residues of the initial model. Factors contributing to our success are discussed.

    Notes: The three-dimensional crystal structure of the enzyme glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase from the kinetoplastid Trypanosoma brucei brucei has been determined at 3.2 Å resolution from a 37% complete data set collected using the Laue method. The crystals used in the structure determination contain one and a half tetrameric enzyme molecules in the asymmetric unit, i.e. six identical subunits. Initial phasing was carried out by the method of molecular replacement using the refined coordinates of holo glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase from Bacillus stearothermophilus as a search model. The initial electron-density distribution, obtained from the molecular-replacement solution, was greatly improved by a procedure consisting of 36 cycles of iterative non-crystallographic density averaging. During the averaging procedure, the missing reflections (63% of the data) were gradually introduced as map-inversion structure factors. At completion of the procedure, the R-factor between averaged map-inversion amplitudes and observed structure-factor amplitudes was 19.0% for all data between 7.0 and 3.2 Å resolution, and that between the map-inversion amplitudes and later recorded structure-factor amplitudes was 41.9%. After model building into the resulting averaged electron-density map, refinement by molecular-dynamics procedures with X-PLOR provided the current model, which has an R-factor of 17.6% for 34 835 reflections between 7.0 and 3.2 Å resolution. The refined model, comprising 2735 protein atoms plus one NAD+ molecule and two sulfate ions per subunit, has r.m.s. deviations from ideality of 0.02 Å for bond lengths and 3.6° for bond angles. All subunits, located either within the tetrameric molecule or within the half tetramer present in the asymmetric unit, are related to each other by almost exact twofold symmetry. The overall structure of the glycosomal glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase subunit and its quaternary arrangement in the tetrameric molecule are similar to that of the enzyme of lobster and Bacillus stearothermophilus (with r.m.s. differences between equivalent Cα positions of 0.71 and 0.64 Å, respectively). The main differences between the structures is the presence of three insertions, plus the substitution of a β-strand by a short α-helix, both occurring at the surface of the glycosomal enzyme subunit.
