Crystal structure of E51C/E54C Psaz from A.faecalis with CLaNP probe
Overview
A lanthanide complex, named CLaNP (caged lanthanide NMR probe) has been, developed for the characterisation of proteins by paramagnetic NMR, spectroscopy. The probe consists of a lanthanide chelated by a derivative, of DTPA (diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid) with two thiol reactive, functional groups. The CLaNP molecule is attached to a protein by two, engineered, surface-exposed, Cys residues in a bidentate manner. This, drastically limits the dynamics of the metal relative to the protein and, enables measurements of pseudocontact shifts. NMR spectroscopy experiments, on a diamagnetic control and the crystal structure of the probe-protein, complex demonstrate that the protein structure is not affected by probe, attachment. The probe is able to induce pseudocontact shifts to at least, 40 A from the metal and causes residual dipolar couplings due to alignment, at a high magnetic field. The molecule exists in several isomeric forms, with different paramagnetic tensors; this provides a fast way to obtain, long-range distance restraints.
