Glucosamine-6-phosphate N-acetyltransferase from human liver, which catalyzes the transfer of an acetyl group from acetyl coenzyme A (AcCoA) to the primary amine of D-glucosamine 6-phosphate to form N-acetyl-D-glucosamine 6-phosphate, was expressed in a soluble form from Escherichia coli strain BL21 (DE3). The protein was purified to homogeneity using Ni(2+)-chelating chromatography followed by size-exclusion chromatography. Crystals of the protein were obtained by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method and diffracted to 2.6 A resolution. The crystals belonged to space group P4(1)2(1)2 or P4(3)2(1)2, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 50.08, c = 142.88 A.
人肝脏中的葡糖胺-6-磷酸N-乙酰基转移酶可催化乙酰辅酶A(AcCoA)的乙酰基转移至D-葡糖胺6-磷酸的伯胺上,形成N-乙酰-D-葡糖胺6-磷酸,该酶以可溶形式在大肠杆菌BL21(DE3)菌株中表达。通过镍(2+)螯合层析,随后进行尺寸排阻层析,将该蛋白纯化至同质。通过悬滴气相扩散法获得了该蛋白的晶体,其衍射分辨率达到2.6 Å。晶体属于空间群P4(1)2(1)2或P4(3)2(1)2,晶胞参数a = b = 50.08,c = 142.88 Å。
