Pyrococcus horikoshii TET2 peptidase assembling process and associated functional regulation.
Tetrahedral (TET) aminopeptidases are large polypeptide destruction machines present in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Here, the rules governing their assembly into hollow 12-subunit tetrahedrons are addressed by using TET2 from Pyrococcus horikoshii (PhTET2) as a model. Point mutations allowed the capture of a stable, catalytically active precursor. Small angle x-ray scattering revealed that it i...
متن کاملHyperthermostable endoglucanase from Pyrococcus horikoshii.
An endoglucanase homolog from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus horikoshii was expressed in Escherichia coli, and its enzymatic characteristics were examined. The expressed protein was a hyperthermostable endoglucanase which hydrolyzes celluloses, including Avicel and carboxymethyl cellulose, as well as beta-glucose oligomers. This enzyme is the first endoglucanase belonging to glycosid...
متن کاملNew deblocking aminopeptidases from Pyrococcus horikoshii.
It has been reported that one of the hyperthermostable aminopeptidases from Pyrococcus horikoshii exhibits hydrolytic activity toward short peptides and acyl-peptides (deblocking activity). In the genome database of P. horikoshii, two new open reading frames homologous to the hyperthermostable aminopeptidase of P. horikoshii were found. The two new genes for the proteins were cloned, expressed ...
متن کاملTheoretical study on the allosteric regulation of an oligomeric protease from Pyrococcus horikoshii by Cl- Ion.
The thermophilic intracellular protease (PH1704) from Pyrococcus horikoshii that functions as an oligomer (hexamer or higher forms) has proteolytic activity and remarkable stability. PH1704 is classified as a member of the C56 family of peptidases. This study is the first to observe that the use of Cl- as an allosteric inhibitor causes appreciable changes in the catalytic activity of the protea...
متن کاملCrystal Structural and Functional Analysis of the Putative Dipeptidase from Pyrococcus horikoshii OT3
The crystal structure of a putative dipeptidase (Phdpd) from Pyrococcus horikoshii OT3 was solved using X-ray data at 2.4 A resolution. The protein is folded into two distinct entities. The N-terminal domain consists of the general topology of the alpha/beta fold, and the C-terminal domain consists of five long mixed strands, four helices, and two 3(10) helices. The structure of Phdpd is quite ...
