Crystallization of the catalytic subunit of Saccharomyces cerevisiae acetohydroxyacid synthase.
Acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS; E.C. 4.1.3.18) is the first enzyme in the biosynthetic pathway of the branched-chain amino acids isoleucine, leucine and valine. It is a thiamin diphosphate-dependent enzyme which catalyses the decarboxylation of pyruvate and its condensation with either 2-ketobutyrate or a second molecule of pyruvate to give 2-aceto-2-hydroxybutyrate or 2-acetolactate, respecti...
متن کاملThe lumazine synthase-riboflavin synthase complex of Bacillus subtilis. Crystallization of reconstituted icosahedral beta-subunit capsids.
The lumazine synthase-riboflavin synthase complex (heavy riboflavin synthase) of Bacillus subtilis consists of an icosahedral capsid of 60 beta-subunits containing a core of three alpha-subunits. The enzyme has been purified from the derepressed mutant H 94 of B. subtilis by a novel efficient procedure using column chromatography and preparative crystallization. Beta-Subunits were isolated afte...
متن کاملCatalytic subunit stoichiometry within the cellulose synthase complex.
Cellulose synthesis is driven by large plasma membrane-inserted protein complexes, which in plants have 6-fold symmetry. In Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), functional cellulose synthesis complexes (CSCs) are composed of at least three different cellulose synthase catalytic subunits (CESAs), but the actual ratio of the CESA isoforms within the CSCs remains unresolved. In this work, the stoic...
متن کاملIdentification of the regulatory subunit of Arabidopsis thaliana acetohydroxyacid synthase and reconstitution with its catalytic subunit.
Acetohydroxyacid synthase (EC 4.1.3.18; AHAS) catalyzes the initial step in the formation of the branched-chain amino acids. The enzyme from most bacteria is composed of a catalytic subunit, and a smaller regulatory subunit that is required for full activity and for sensitivity to feedback regulation by valine. A similar arrangement was demonstrated recently for yeast AHAS, and a putative regul...
متن کاملcomparison of catalytic activity of heteropoly compounds in the synthesis of bis(indolyl)alkanes.
heteropoly acids (hpa) and their salts have advantages as catalysts which make them both economically and environmentally attractive, strong br?nsted acidity, exhibiting fast reversible multi-electron redox transformations under rather mild conditions, very high solubility in polar solvents, fairly high thermal stability in the solid states, and efficient oxidizing ability, so that they are imp...
