THE BUBBLE PROTEIN FROM PENICILLIUM BREVICOMPACTUM DIERCKX EXUDATE.
Overview
A small cysteine-rich protein, the function of which remains elusive, was, discovered in the exudate of a Penicillium species. Crystal diffraction, experiments conducted using in-house Cu Kalpha radiation and an R-AXIS, IV++ imaging-plate detector yielded high-quality data to 1.4 A, with a, distinguishable anomalous signal from sulfur (DeltaF/F = 0.031). This was, used to phase the data and solve the structure using a single data set;, the 64-residue amino-acid sequence was unambiguously determined from the, electron density. It revealed a globular all-beta protein with a hitherto, unknown fold, having a surface electrostatic charge distribution that is, similar to that of another small secreted fungal protein, the Williopsis, mrakii killer toxin. Aligning the charge distribution superimposed the, potential recognition sites of the two proteins, suggesting a similar, negatively charged target.
