CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF ML2640C FROM MYCOBACTERIUM LEPRAE IN COMPLEX WITH S-ADENOSYLMETHIONINE
Overview
Mycobacterium leprae protein ML2640c belongs to a large family of, conserved hypothetical proteins predominantly found in mycobacteria, some, of them predicted as putative S-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet)-dependent, methyltransferases (MTase). As part of a Structural Genomics initiative on, conserved hypothetical proteins in pathogenic mycobacteria, we have, determined the structure of ML2640c in two distinct crystal forms. As, expected, ML2640c has a typical MTase core domain and binds the methyl, donor substrate AdoMet in a manner consistent with other known members of, this structural family. The putative acceptor substrate-binding site of, ML2640c is a large internal cavity, mostly lined by aromatic and aliphatic, side-chain residues, suggesting that a lipid-like molecule might be, ...
