    Notes: Structural studies of the wild type and mutants of the src SH3 domain were initiated to elucidate the correlation of the native-state topology with protein thermostability and folding kinetics. An extra mass of 178 Da arising from the post-translational modification at the N-terminal His tag was observed. The spontaneous α-N-6 gluconoylation at the amino group of the His-tagged SH3 domain contributed to the observed extra mass. The partial modification of the N-terminal His-tag produced heterogeneity, both in size and in charge, in the Escherichia coli expressed SH3 domain. The removal of the His tag from the SH3 domain was essential for the crystallization of both wild-type and mutant src SH3. Both the wild type and the W43I mutant were crystallized by hanging-drop vapor diffusion and are in the hexagonal space group P6522 with one molecule in the asymmetric unit. Data sets were collected to 1.8 and 1.95 Å resolution for the the wild type and the W43I mutant, respectively.

    Notes: The small 62-residue IgG-binding domain B1 of protein L from Peptostreptococcus magnus (Ppl-B1) has proven to be a simple system for the study of the thermodynamics and kinetics of protein folding. X-ray diffraction studies have been initiated in order to determine how the thermostability, folding and unfolding rates of a series of point mutations spanning Ppl-B1 correlate with the high-resolution structures. To this end, a tryptophan-containing variant of Ppl-B1 (herein known as wild type) and two mutants, Lys61Ala and Val49Ala, have been crystallized. Full data sets have been collected for the wild type and the Lys61Ala and Val49Ala mutants to resolutions of 1.7, 2.3 and 1.8 Å, respectively. Interestingly, all three crystallize using different precipitants and in different space groups. This may be a consequence of the relatively large effects of single-site mutations on surface-charge distribution or structural conformation, which might affect crystal contact sites.

    Notes: The three-dimensional structure of a tryptophan-containing variant of the IgG-binding B1 domain of protein L has been solved in two crystal forms to 1.7 and 1.8 Å resolution. In one of the crystal forms, the entire N-terminal histidine-tag region was immobilized through the coordination of zinc ions and its structural conformation along with the zinc coordination scheme were determined. However, the ordering of the histidine tag by zinc does not affect the overall structure of the rest of the protein. Structural comparisons of the tryptophan-containing variant with an NMR-derived wild-type structure, which contains a tyrosine at position 47, reveals a common fold, although the overall backbone root-mean-square difference is 1.5 Å. The Y47W substitution only caused local rearrangement of several side chains, the most prominent of which is the rotation of the Tyr34 side chain, resulting in a 6 Å displacement of its hydroxyl group. A small methyl-sized cavity bounded by β-strands 1, 2 and 4 and the α-helix was found in the structures of the Y47W-substituted protein L B1 domain. This cavity may be created as the result of subsequent side-chain rearrangements caused by the Y47W substitution. These high-resolution structures of the tryptophan-containing variant provide a reference frame for the analysis of thermodynamic and kinetic data derived from a series of mutational studies of the protein L B1 domain.
