METHIONINE AMINOPEPTIDASE FROM HYPERTHERMOPHILE PYROCOCCUS FURIOSUS

Overview

The structure of methionine aminopeptidase from hyperthermophile, Pyrococcus furiosus (PfMAP) with an optimal growth temperature of 100, degreesC was determined by the multiple isomorphous replacement method and, refined in three different crystal forms, one monoclinic and two, hexagonal, at resolutions of 2.8, 2.9, and 3.5 A. The resolution of the, monoclinic crystal form was extended to 1.75 A by water-mediated, transformation to a low-humidity form, and the obtained diffraction data, used for high-resolution structure refinement. This is the first, description of a eukaryotic type methionine aminopeptidase structure. The, PfMAP molecule is composed of two domains, a catalytic domain and an, insertion domain, connected via two antiparallel beta-strands. The, catalytic domain, which ... [(full description)]
