The biosynthetic threonine deaminase from Escherichia coli, an allosteric tetramer with key regulatory functions, has been crystallized in several crystal forms. Two distinct forms, both belonging to either space group P3121 or P3221, with different sized asymmetric units that both contain a tetramer, grow under identical conditions. Diffraction data sets to 2.8 Å resolution (native) and 2.9 Å resolution (isomorphous uranyl derivative) have been collected from a third crystal form in space group I222.

Recombinant 7,8-diaminopelargonic acid synthase from Escherichia coli, a pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase, has been crystallized in space groups P21 and C2. Both crystal forms were obtained at pH 7.3 with 21% polyethylene glycol and 10% 2-propanol as precipitants. The cell dimensions were a = 130, b = 57.5, c = 117 Å, β = 110° for the C2 crystals, and a = 58.4, b = 55.6, c = 121 Å, β = 96.9° for the P21 crystals, which diffract to at least 2.6 and 2.0 Å resolution, respectively.

The molybdenum-responsive ModE regulatory protein from Escherichia coli has been purified and used in crystallization trials. Two crystal forms have been observed. Form I is tetragonal, P41212 (or enantiomorph), with a = b = 72.3, c = 246.2 Å and diffracts to medium resolution. Form II is orthorhombic, P21212, with a = 82.8, b = 127.9, c = 64.0 Å and diffraction has been observed beyond 2.8 Å resolution. Structural analysis, in combination with ongoing biochemical characterization, will assist the elucidation of the structure–activity relationship in regulating the uptake of molybdate in bacteria.

Human glutathione-S-transferase M2–2 (hGSTM2–2) was expressed in Escherichia coli and purified by GSH-affinity chromatography. The recombinant enzyme and the protein isolated from human tissue were indistinguishable based on physicochemical, enzymatic and immunological criteria. The catalytically active dimeric hGSTM2–2 was crystallized without GSH or other active-site ligands in two crystal forms. Diffraction from form A crystals extends to 2.5 Å and is consistent with the space group P21 (a = 53.9, b = 81.5, c = 55.6 Å, β = 109.26 Å) with two monomers in the asymmetric unit. Diffraction from form B crystals extends to 3 Å and is consistent with a space group P212121 (a = 57.2, b = 80.7, c = 225.9 Å) with two dimers in the asymmetric unit. This is the first report of ligand-free mu-class GST crystals, and a comparison with liganded complexes will provide insight into the structural consequences of substrate binding which are thought to be important for catalysis.

An RNA helix with seven base pairs which was derived from the acceptor stem of Escherichia coli tRNAAla, rGGGGCUA·rUAGCUCC (ALAwt), as well as a variant, rGGGGCUA·rUAGCCCC (ALAC70), in which the single G·U wobble base pair of ALAwt was replaced by G·C, crystallize in space group C2. Both non-isomorphic crystal forms display a complex packing pattern, which can be described alternatively as disorder or pseudo-merohedral twinning. The structure of ALAwt was determined by SIRAS phasing using an isomorphous iodine derivative, rGGGGCi5UA·rUAGCUCC (ALAI). All three RNA structures were subsequently subjected to twin refinement in space group P1, using anisotropic thermal displacement parameters at resolutions of 1.16, 1.23 and 1.4 Å for ALAwt, ALAI and ALAC70, respectively. Alternatively, the structure of ALAwt was refined in space group C2 assuming twofold disorder of the molecular orientation. The refined structures are of reasonable quality according to all available indicators. There are no systematic differences between the molecular models resulting from twin refinement and disorder refinement.
