The backbone resonance assignments of an engineered splicing-inactive mini-RecA intein based on triple resonance experiments with [(13)C,(15)N]-labeled protein are reported. The construct contains inactivating mutations specifically designed to retain most catalytic residues, especially those that are potentially metal-coordinating. The assignments are essential for protein structure determination of a precursor with an active N-terminal catalytic cysteine and for investigation of the atomic details of splicing.
报道了基于对[(13)C,(15)N]标记蛋白质进行三重共振实验的工程化剪接失活型迷你RecA内含肽的主链共振归属。该构建体包含专门设计的失活突变,以保留大多数催化残基,特别是那些可能参与金属配位的残基。这些归属对于具有活性N端催化半胱氨酸的前体的蛋白质结构测定以及剪接原子细节的研究至关重要。
