3-Hydroxyisobutyrate, a central metabolite in the valine catabolic pathway, is reversibly oxidized to methylmalonate semialdehyde by a specific NADP-dependent dehydrogenase (HIBADH). HIBADH from Thermus thermophilus HB8 has been overexpressed in Escherichia coli and crystallized by the microbatch method using lithium chloride as a precipitant at 296 K. X-ray diffraction data have been collected to 1.80 A resolution at 100 K using synchrotron radiation. The crystals belong to the orthorhombic space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 85.878, b = 106.367, c = 168.639 A. A homotetramer of HIBADH is likely to be present in the asymmetric unit, giving a V(M) of 3.0 A(3) Da(-1) and a solvent content of 59.3%.
3-羟基异丁酸是缬氨酸分解代谢途径中的一种中心代谢物,它通过一种特定的依赖于烟酰胺腺嘌呤二核苷酸磷酸(NADP)的脱氢酶(HIBADH)可逆地氧化为甲基丙二酸半醛。嗜热栖热菌HB8的HIBADH已在大肠杆菌中过表达,并通过微量分批法在296 K下使用氯化锂作为沉淀剂进行结晶。利用同步辐射在100 K下收集了分辨率为1.80 Å的X射线衍射数据。晶体属于正交晶系空间群P2(1)2(1)2(1),晶胞参数a = 85.878,b = 106.367,c = 168.639 Å。非对称单元中可能存在HIBADH的同四聚体,其V(M)为3.0 ų Da⁻¹,溶剂含量为59.3%。
