ASP74ALA MUTANT CRYSTAL STRUCTURE FOR DPS-LIKE PEROXIDE RESISTANCE PROTEIN DPR FROM STREPTOCOCCUS SUIS.
Overview
The Dps-like peroxide resistance protein (Dpr) is a dodecameric protein, that protects the human and swine pathogen Streptococcus suis from, hydrogen peroxide by removing free Fe2+ from the cytosol. Subsequent, oxidation of iron by Dpr results in the deposition of Fe3+ inside the, protein's central cavity. Structural changes that occur in the ferroxidase, center were studied by X-ray crystallography after soaking Dpr crystals, with Fe2+ in the presence of sodium dithionite. Twelve iron-binding sites, were identified with each site formed by residues Asp74 and Glu78 from one, subunit, and Asp63, His47 and His59 from a 2-fold symmetry-related, subunit. Compared to the iron-free Dpr, Asp74 and Glu78 were found to be, the most flexible amino acid residues and able to adopt a variety of, ... [(full description)]
