A putative UDP-N-acetyl-D-mannosamine dehydrogenase from Pyrococcus horikoshii OT3, an essential enzyme for polysaccharide biosynthesis, has been overexpressed in Escherichia coli and purified. Crystals were obtained using the oil-microbatch method at 291 K. A native data set extending to 1.8 A resolution has been collected and processed in space group P2(1). Assuming the presence of a dimer in the asymmetric unit, the V(M) value is calculated to be 2.3 A3 Da(-1), which is consistent with the result of a dynamic light-scattering experiment that shows a dimeric state of the protein in solution.
来自嗜热栖热菌OT3的一种假定的UDP-N-乙酰-D-甘露糖胺脱氢酶,它是多糖生物合成中的一种必需酶,已在大肠杆菌中过表达并纯化。采用油微批量法在291 K下获得了晶体。在空间群P2(1)中收集并处理了分辨率达到1.8 Å的天然数据集。假设不对称单元中存在二聚体,计算出的V(M)值为2.3 Å3 Da(-1),这与动态光散射实验结果一致,该实验表明该蛋白质在溶液中呈二聚体状态。
