CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF THE DOUBLE MUTANT CYS3SER/SER100PRO FROM PSEUDOMONAS AERUGINOSA AT 1.8 A RESOLUTION
Overview
Azurin is a cupredoxin, which functions as an electron carrier. Its fold, is dominated by a beta-sheet structure. In the present study, azurin, serves as a model system to investigate the importance of a conserved, disulphide bond for protein stability and folding/unfolding. For this, purpose, we have examined two azurin mutants, the single mutant Cys3Ser, which disrupts azurin's conserved disulphide bond, and the double mutant, Cys3Ser/Ser100Pro, which contains an additional mutation at a site distant, from the conserved disulphide. The crystal structure of the azurin double, mutant has been determined to 1.8 A resolution(2), with a crystallographic, R-factor of 17.5% (R(free)=20.8%). A comparison with the wild-type, structure reveals that structural differences are limited to the sites ... [(full description)]
