Pyruvate kinase (PK) from a moderate thermophile, Bacillus stearothermophilus (BstPK), is an allosteric enzyme activated by AMP and ribose 5-phosphate but not by fructose 1,6-bisphosphate (FBP). However, almost all other PKs are activated by FBP. The wild-type and W416F/V435W mutant BstPKs were crystallized by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. However, they were unsuitable for structural analysis because their data sets exhibited low completeness. A crystal suitable for structural analysis was obtained using C9S/C268S enzyme. The crystal belonged to space group P6(2)22, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 145.97, c = 118.03 A.
来自嗜热栖热芽孢杆菌(BstPK)的丙酮酸激酶(PK)是一种别构酶,可被AMP和5-磷酸核糖激活,但不能被1,6-二磷酸果糖(FBP)激活。然而,几乎所有其他PK都被FBP激活。野生型和W416F/V435W突变型BstPK通过悬滴气相扩散法结晶。然而,它们不适合进行结构分析,因为其数据集的完整性较低。使用C9S/C268S酶获得了适合结构分析的晶体。该晶体属于空间群P6(2)22,晶胞参数a = b = 145.97,c = 118.03 Å。
