Severe zinc depletion of Escherichia coli: roles for high affinity zinc binding by ZinT, zinc transport and zinc-independent proteins.
Zinc ions play indispensable roles in biological chemistry. However, bacteria have an impressive ability to acquire Zn(2+) from the environment, making it exceptionally difficult to achieve Zn(2+) deficiency, and so a comprehensive understanding of the importance of Zn(2+) has not been attained. Reduction of the Zn(2+) content of Escherichia coli growth medium to 60 nm or less is reported here ...
متن کاملBIOTECHNOLOGICALLY RELEVANT ENZYMES AND PROTEINS Expression of chondroitin-4-O-sulfotransferase inEscherichia coli and Pichia pastoris
Chondroitin sulfates are linear sulfated polysaccharides called glycosaminoglycans. They are important nutraceutical and pharmaceutical products that are biosynthesized through the action of chondroitin sulfotransferases on either an unsulfated chondroitin or a dermatan polysaccharide precursor. While the enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of chondroitin sulfates are well known, the cloning e...
متن کاملusing rice flour for purification of maltose binding fusion proteins expressed in escherichia coli
background one disadvantage of expressing heterologous proteins in escherichia coli is that the proteins are frequently expressed as insoluble inclusion bodies. to avoid this problem, heterologous proteins are typically expressed as a fusion protein. maltose binding protein (mbp) is one of the widely used partners for production of recombinant fusion proteins in e. coli. mbp is among the most e...
متن کاملEscherichia coli Protein Expression System for Acetylcholine Binding Proteins (AChBPs)
Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) are ligand gated ion channels, identified as therapeutic targets for a range of human diseases. Drug design for nAChR related disorders is increasingly using structure-based approaches. Many of these structural insights for therapeutic lead development have been obtained from co-crystal structures of nAChR agonists and antagonists with the acetylcholine...
متن کاملSystematic Discovery of Xist RNA Binding Proteins
Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) function with associated proteins to effect complex structural and regulatory outcomes. To reveal the composition and dynamics of specific noncoding RNA-protein complexes (RNPs) in vivo, we developed comprehensive identification of RNA binding proteins by mass spectrometry (ChIRP-MS). ChIRP-MS analysis of four ncRNAs captures key protein interactors, including a U1-speci...
