Cystathionine γ-synthase (CGS) catalyzes the first step in the transsulfuration pathway leading to the formation of cystathionine from O-succinylhomoserine and L-cysteine through a γ-replacement reaction. As an antibacterial drug target against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), CGS from Xoo (XometB) was cloned, expressed, purified and crystallized. The XometB crystal diffracted to 2.4 Å resolution and belonged to the tetragonal space group I4(1), with unit-cell parameters a=b=165.4, c=241.7 Å. There were four protomers in the asymmetric unit, with a corresponding solvent content of 73.9%.
胱硫醚γ-合酶(CGS)催化转硫途径的第一步反应,即通过γ-取代反应,由O-琥珀酰高丝氨酸和L-半胱氨酸生成胱硫醚。作为针对水稻白叶枯病菌(Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae,简称Xoo)的抗菌药物靶点,对来自Xoo的CGS(XometB)进行了克隆、表达、纯化及结晶。XometB晶体的衍射分辨率为2.4 Å,属于四方晶系空间群I4(1),晶胞参数a = b = 165.4,c = 241.7 Å。不对称单元中有四个原体,相应的溶剂含量为73.9%。
