APO-NIKR FROM HELICOBACTER PYLORI IN CLOSED TRANS-CONFORMATION

Overview

The survival of Helicobacter pylori in the human stomach critically relies, on the availability and use of nickel, an absolute cofactor of the, important virulence determinant urease. Nickel-responsive gene regulation, is mediated by HpNikR, a protein belonging to the ribbon-helix-helix, family of transcriptional regulators. Unlike its homologues, HpNikR acts, as both a repressor and an activator within an acid adaptation cascade. We, report the crystal structure of the full-length HpNikR in a nickel-free, conformation and two nickel-bound structures obtained in different, conditions: Ni1-HpNikR and Ni2-HpNikR. Apo-HpNikR shows the same global, fold as its bacterial homologues although with an unusual closed, trans-conformation and asymmetrical quaternary arrangement. The structure, of ...
