Crystallization (Commentary)

Crystallization (Comment) Organism
photolyase-like domain of Cry1 Arabidopsis thaliana
shows an N-terminal alpha/beta domain and a C-terminal alpha-helical domain Escherichia coli
shows an N-terminal alpha/beta domain and a C-terminal alpha-helical domain. In complex with a DNA-duplex containing a synthetic cyclobutane-pyrimidine-dimers lesion analog, which shows that the protein fold changes only marginally upon DNA binding. CPD-photolyase proteins fully open the DNA-duplex structure at the damaged site and flip the dinucleotide lesion out of the duplex into the active site. Lesion comes in close contact (3 A) with the active FADH-cofactor Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942 = FACHB-805

additional information CPD-photolyase is a DNA repair protein, the electron-transport chain of Cry1 involves a Tyr residue as initial electron donor. For Cry3, weak but unspecific DNA binding, for Cry1, DNA binding cannot be detected. Cry2, whose surface largely resembles that of Cry1, does bind to DNA. Cry3 does repair cyclobutane-pyrimidine-dimers when the lesion is located in a preflipped out state such as in bulges of dsDNA.
