The crystal structure of the beta-lactamase of Streptomyces albus G at 0.3 nm resolution.

چکیده
The crystal structure of the beta-lactamase of Streptomyces albus G has been solved at 0.3 nm resolution by X-ray-diffraction methods. The enzyme is a typical two-domain protein. One domain consists of five alpha-helices, and the other is five-stranded beta-sheet with alpha-helices on both sides of the sheet. The active-site serine residue (Ser-48) is within a cleft located between the two domains.

Combinatorial biochemistry and shuffling of TEM, SHV and Streptomyces albus omega loops in PSE-4 class A beta-lactamase.
The class A PSE-4 beta-lactamase was used for studying the importance of amino acids in the omega (Omega) loop and its interactions for hydrolysis of beta-lactam antibiotics. By cassette mutagenesis, we replaced the amino acids 163-179 Omega loop in PSE-4 with TEM-1, SHV-1 and Streptomyces albus G beta-lactamase Omega loops. Phenotypic analysis of Escherichia coli recombinants expressing the Om...
متن کاملThe exoceliular , B - lactamase of Streptomyces albus G
The exoceilular f-lactamase of Streptomyces albus G has been purified to near protein homogeneity. It consists of one single polypeptide chain of mol.wt. 30000-31000, has a rather low isoelectric point (at pH 6.0) and contains less lysine (2.1%) and more half-cystine residues than most fi-lactamases from other Gram-positive bacteria. Penicillins are much better substrates than A3-cephalosporins...
متن کاملThe active sites of the beta-lactamases of Streptomyces cacaoi and Streptomyces albus G.
The active-site serine of the extracellular beta-lactamases of Streptomyces cacaoi and Streptomyces albus G has been labelled with beta-iodopenicillanate. The determination of the sequence of the labelled peptides obtained after trypsin digestion of the denatured proteins indicate both enzymes to be class A beta-lactamases. Surprisingly the two Streptomyces enzymes do not appear to be especiall...
متن کاملStreptomyces albus G serine beta-lactamase. Probing of the catalytic mechanism via molecular modelling of mutant enzymes.
In previous studies, several amino acids of the active site of class A beta-lactamases have been modified by site-directed mutagenesis. On the basis of the catalytic mechanism proposed for the Streptomyces albus G beta-lactamase [Lamotte-Brasseur, Dive, Dideberg, Charlier, Frère & Ghuysen (1991) Biochem. J. 279, 213-221], the influence that these mutations exert on the hydrogen-bonding network ...
متن کاملThe mechanism of action of DD-peptidases: the role of tyrosine-159 in the Streptomyces R61 DD-peptidase.
Tyrosine-159 of the Streptomyces R61 penicillin-sensitive DD-peptidase was replaced by serine or phenylalanine. The second mutation yielded a very poorly active protein whose rate of penicillin binding was also drastically decreased, except for the reactions with nitrocefin and methicillin. The consequences of the first mutation were more surprising, since a large proportion of the thiolesteras...
