The hyperthermophilic crenarchaeon Ignicoccus hospitalis KIN4/I possesses at least 35 putative genes encoding enzymes that belong to the α/β-hydrolase superfamily. One of those genes, the metallo-hydrolase-encoding igni18, was cloned and heterologously expressed in Pichia pastoris. The enzyme produced was purified in its catalytically active form. The recombinant enzyme was successfully crystallized and the crystal diffracted to a resolution of 2.3 Å. The crystal belonged to space group R32, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 67.42, c = 253.77 Å, α = β = 90.0, γ = 120.0°. It is suggested that it contains one monomer of Igni18 within the asymmetric unit.
嗜热泉古菌医院火球菌KIN4/I至少拥有35个推定基因,这些基因编码属于α/β水解酶超家族的酶。其中一个基因igni18编码金属水解酶,已被克隆并在毕赤酵母中进行异源表达。所产生的酶以其催化活性形式进行了纯化。重组酶成功结晶,晶体衍射分辨率达到2.3 Å。该晶体属于R32空间群,晶胞参数为a = b = 67.42,c = 253.77 Å,α = β = 90.0,γ = 120.0°。据推测,不对称单元中包含一个Igni18单体。
