purified recombinant detagged truncated enzyme mutant . DELTAhPus1p and mutant D146A DELTAhPus1p, sitting drop technique, mixing of 7 mg/ml protein in 20 mM HEPES, pH 7.0, 150 mM NaCl, 5 mM MgCl2, and 5 mM TCEP, with an equal amount of reservoir solution containing for DELTAhPus1p crystals 28% PEG 3350/glycerol, 0.1 M Bicine/Tris, pH 8.5, 10% amino acids mixture (with 0.02 M sodium L-glutamate, 0.02 M DL-alanine, 0.02 M glycine, 0.02 M DL-lysine HCl, 0.02 M DL-serine), and for D146A DELTAhPus1p crystals 17% PEG 8000, and 0.1 M HEPES, pH 8.0, both at 4°C, for 2-3 days, X-ray diffraction structure determination and analysis at 2.0-2.7 A resolution, respectively, molecular replacement using Pus1p structure, PDB ID 4ITS, as a model | Homo sapiens |
sitting drop technique. The crystal structure of the catalytic domain of hPus1p and the D146A mutant of the enzyme is determined at 2.0 A resolution, alone and in a complex with several molecules present during crystallisation | Homo sapiens |

D146A | site-directed mutagenesis of truncated enzyme mutant DELTAhPus1p, differences between structures of DELTAhPus1p and DELTAhPus1pD146A are limited to external, poorly conserved loops, which confirm the flexibility of these regions | Homo sapiens |
additional information | generation of a truncated hPus1p version encompassing residues 83-394, i.e. DELTAhPus1p. The deleted N- and C-termini are not essential for either the RNA binding or the activity of the hPus1p enzyme | Homo sapiens |

More | the hPus1p enzyme binds to its RNA substrate as a monomer. The C-terminal end of hPus1p folds into two alpha-helices and these helices pack against the back of the hPus1p molecule, which prevents the dimerization observed in the bacterial homologue, TruA. This C-terminal region is responsible for the atypical RNA substrate binding and activity of hPus1p. Enzyme crystal structure analysis, overview | Homo sapiens |
