Crystal structure of the phosphate-binding protein (PBP-1) of an ABC-type phosphate transporter from Clostridium perfringens
Phosphate limitation is an important environmental stress that affects the metabolism of various organisms and, in particular, can trigger the virulence of numerous bacterial pathogens. Clostridium perfringens, a human pathogen, is one of the most common causes of enteritis necroticans, gas gangrene and food poisoning. Here, we focused on the high affinity phosphate-binding protein (PBP-1) of a...
متن کاملPyridoxal phosphate-sensitized photoinactivation of glutamate decarboxylase from Clostridium perfringens.
1. l-Glutamate decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.15) from Clostridium perfringens was inactivated by exposure to visible light at pH6.2. 2. Inactivation does not occur at pH4.6 or in the absence of bound pyridoxal phosphate. 3. On prolonged photo-oxidation six histidine residues per molecule of enzyme were destroyed. 4. The loss of six cysteine residues per molecule occurred both in irradiated samples an...
متن کاملCrystal structure and mechanism of GlpT, the glycerol-3-phosphate transporter from E. coli.
The major facilitator superfamily represents the largest group of secondary active membrane transporters in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. They transport a vast variety of substrates, presumably via similar mechanisms, yet the details of these mechanisms remain unclear. Here we report the 3.3 A resolution structure of a member of this superfamily--GlpT, the glycerol-3-phosphate transporter f...
متن کاملCrystal Structure of the New Phosphate AgMnPO4
The new compound AgMnPO4 has been synthesized by a solid-state reaction route. Its crystal structure was determined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. AgMnPO4 crystallizes with triclinic symmetry, space group P1̄, a = 9.6710(6), b = 5.695(2), c = 6.629(3) Å, α = 102.55(3), β = 105.85(2), γ = 80.70(2)◦, and Z = 4. Its structure is built up fromMnO6,MnO5 and PO4 polyhedra forming tunnels ...
متن کاملStructure of the claudin-binding domain of Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin.
Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin is a common cause of food-borne and antibiotic-associated diarrhea. The toxin's receptors on intestinal epithelial cells include claudin-3 and -4, members of a large family of tight junction proteins. Toxin-induced cytolytic pore formation requires residues in the NH(2)-terminal half, whereas residues near the COOH terminus are required for binding to claudin...
