Mutants that alter the covalent structure of catalase hydroperoxidase II from Escherichia coli.
The three-dimensional structures of two HPII variants, V169C and H392Q, have been determined at resolutions of 1.8 and 2.1 A, respectively. The V169C variant contains a new type of covalent bond between the sulfur atom of Cys(169) and a carbon atom on the imidazole ring of the essential His(128). This variant enzyme has only residual catalytic activity and contains heme b. The chain of water mo...
متن کاملThe catalase-peroxidase of Mycobacterium intracellulare: nucleotide sequence analysis and expression in Escherichia coli.
The activation of catalase genes in response to oxidative stress may contribute to the intracellular survival of mycobacteria. In this report, the nucleotide sequence of a mycobacterial catalase gene is described. The deduced protein sequence of this Mycobacterium intracellulare gene (MI85) was 60% identical to the Escherichia coli hydroperoxidase I (HPI) protein, 59% identical to the Salmonell...
متن کاملRole and location of "protease I" from Escherichia coli.
Pacaud and Uriel described an enzyme from Escherichia coli ("protease I") that hydrolyzes acetyl phenylalanine naphthyl ester (APNE). We examined the possible involvement of this enzyme in intracellular protein degradation, its subcellular distribution, and its proteolytic activity. Although the APNE-hydrolyzing activity is localized primarily in the periplasm, proteolytic activity against case...
متن کاملExonuclease III and the catalase hydroperoxidase II in Escherichia coli are both regulated by the katF gene product.
The levels of both exonuclease III (exo III, product of xthA) and hydroperoxidase II (HP-II, product of katE) activity in Escherichia coli were influenced by a functional katF gene. The katF gene product is also necessary for synthesis of HP-II. Mutations in either katF or xthA, but not katE, result in sensitivity to H2O2 and near-UV (300-400 nm) radiation. Exo III, encoded by the xthA locus, r...
متن کاملIs Root Catalase a Bifunctional Catalase-Peroxidase?
Plant catalases exhibit spatial and temporal distribution of their activity. Moreover, except from the typical monofunctional catalase, a bifunctional catalase-peroxidase has been reported. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the leaf and root catalases from six different plant species (Lactuca sativa, Cichorium endivia, Apium graveolens, Petroselinum crispum, Lycopersicon esculent...
