    Notizen: A genetic screening procedure has been developed to identify mutant forms of bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor (BPTI) that can fold to an active conformation but are inactivated more rapidly than the wild type protein. Small cultures of Escherichia coli containing plasmids with mutagenized BPTI genes were grown in microtiter plates, lysed, and treated with dithiothreitol (DTT). Under these conditions, unfolding and inactivation of wild-type protein has a half-time of about 10 hours. Variants of BPTI that are inactivated within 1 hour were identified by adding trypsin and a chromogenic substrate. Approximately 11,000 mutagenized clones were screened in this way and 75 clones that produce proteins that can fold but are inactivated by DTT were isolated. The genes coding for 68 “DTT-sensitive” mutant proteins were sequenced, and 25 different single amino acid substitutions at 15 of the 58 residues of the protein were identified. Most of the altered residues are largely buried in the core of the naive wild-type structure and are highly conserved among proteins homologous to BPTI. These results indicate that a large fraction of the sequence of the protein contributes to the kinetic stability of the active conformation, but it also appears that substitutions can be tolerated a most sites without completely preventing folding Because this genetics, further studies of the isolated mutants are expected to provide information about the roles of the altered residues in folding and unfolding.

    Notizen: Controlled thrombic digestion of a preparation of components 2 + 3 isolated from the 18.5 kDa bovine myelin basic protein (MBP) yielded a polypeptide that was monophosphorylated on threonine 97 (component 3pT97). This is the first posttranslationally phosphorylated MBP isolated in pure form. We studied the effect of this single phosphate on the conformational adaptability of 18.5 kDa bovine MBP by comparing the circular dichroism (CD) spectrum of component 3pT97 with the spectra of highly purified nonphosphorylated components 1 and 2. The CD spectra of nonphosphorylated component 1 and component 2 [monodeamidated forms(s) of component1] were indistinguishable, while component 3pt97 exhibited a different spectrum. The singly phophorylated MBP component exhibited 13% more ordered conformations than that adopted by nonphosphorylated MBP in dilute aqueous solutions. This was estimated from the CD spectra, and apparently involved about 17 additional amino acid residues in β-structure(s).

    Notizen: Human serum retinol binding protein (RBP) in complex with retinol has been crystallographically refined to an R-factor of 18.1% with 2Å resolution data. The protein topology results in an anti-parallel β-barrel that encapsulates the retinol ligand. A detailed description of the protein and the binding site is provided. Our structural work has helped to define a family of proteins, many of which are carrier proteins for smaller ligand molecules. We describe the structural basis for the conservation of sequence within the family.

    Notizen: The crystal structure of recombinant bovine chymosin (EC 3.4.23.4; renin), which was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli, has been determined using X-ray data extending to 2.3 Å resolution. The crystals of the enzyme used in this study belong to the space group I222 with unit cell dimensions a = 72.7 Å, b = 80.3 Å, and c = 114.8 Å. The structure was solved by the molecular replacement method and was refined by a restrained least-squares procedure. The crystallographic R factor is 0.165 and the deviation of bond distances from ideality is 0.020 Å. The resulting model includes all 323 amino acid residues, as well as 297 water molecules. The enzyme has an irregular shape with approximate maximum dimensions of 40 × 50 × 65 Å. The secondary structure consists primarily of parallel and antiparallel β-strands with a few short α-helices. The enzyme can be subdivided into N- and C- terminal domains which are separated by a deep cleft containing the active aspartate residues Asp-34 and Asp-216. The amino acid residues and waters at the active site form an extensive hydrogen-bonded network which maintains the pseudo 2-fold symmetry of the entire structure. A comparison of recombinant chymosin with other acid proteinases reveals the high degree of structural similarity with other members of this family of proteins as well as the subtle differences which make chymosin unique. In particular, Tyr-77 of the flap region of chymosin does not hydrogen bond to Trp-42 but protrudes out in the P1 pocket forming hydrophobic interactions with Phe-119 and Leu-32. This may have important implications concerning the mechanism of substrate binding and substrate specificity.

    Notizen: Three scorpion toxins have been analyzed by circular dichroism in water and in 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol (TFE) solutions. These toxins were chosen because they are representative of three kinds of pharmacological activities: (1) toxin AaH IT2, an antiinsect toxin purified from the venom of Androctonus australis Hector, which is able to bind to insect nervous system preparation, (2) toxin Css II, from the venom of Centruroides suffusus suffusus, which is a β-type antimammal toxin capable of binding to mammal nervous system preparation, and (3) the toxin Ts VII from the venom of Tityus serrulatus, which is able to bind to both types of nervous systems. In order to minimize bias, CD data were analyzed by a predictive algorithm to assess secondary structure content. Among the three molecules, Ts VII presented the most unordered secondary structure in water, but it gained in ordered forms when solubilized in TFE. These results indicated that the Ts VII backbone is the most flexible, which might result in a more pronounced tendency for this toxin molecule to undergo conformational changes. This is consistent with the fact that it competes with both antiinsect and β-type antimammal toxins for the binding to the sodium channel.

    Notizen: A program is described which generates hydrogen bonding diagrams of protein structures and optionally helical wheels and helical nets. The program can also be used simply to calculate the connectivities of β-strands and to automatically extract simple structural motifs such as hairpins or Greek keys. The program greatly reduces the effort required to produce these diagrams and offers considerable flexibility in the information which can be represented. The usefulness of the program is illustrated by several examples including comparing homologous families, correlating protein structure with attributes of individual residues, and extracting all examples of the ψ-loop motif from the Brookhaven Data Bank.

    Notizen: A number of peroxidase amino acid sequences show limited homology to short regions comprising the known active site cleft of yeast cytochrome c peroxidase. Otherwise no clear homology is visible in linear alignments between this enzyme and other peroxidases. We have subjected eight peroxidase sequences to hydrophobic cluster analysis. Our results suggest that these peroxidases are evolutionary related and that they share many folding characteristics.
