Substrate binding proteins (SBP) bind to specific ligands in the periplasmic region and bind to membrane proteins to participate in transport or signal transduction. Typical SBPs consist of two α/β domains and recognize the substrate by hinge motion between two domains. Conversely, short length Rhodothermus marinus SBP (named as RmSBP) exists around the methyl-accepting chemotaxis protein. We previously determined the crystal structure of RmSBP consisting of a single α/β domain, but the substrate recognition mechanism is still unclear. To better understand the short length RmSBP, we performed comparative structure analysis, computational substrate docking, and X-ray crystallographic study. RmSBP shares a high level of similarity in α/β domain with other SBP proteins, but it has a distinct topology in the C-term region. The substrate binding model suggested that conformational change in the peripheral region of RmSBP was required to recognize the substrate. We determined the crystal structures of RmSBP at pH 5.5, 6.0, and 7.5. RmSBP showed structural flexibility of the β1-α2 loop, β5-β6 loop, and extended C-term domain based on the electron density map and temperature B-factor analysis. These results provide information that will further the understanding of the function of the short length SBP.

A procedure is described to prepare uniformly labelled D-[14C]ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate enzymically from uniformly labelled D-[14C]glucose through the coupled reactions catalysed by hexokinase (EC 2.7.1.1), glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.49), 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.44) and 5-phosphoribulokinase (EC 2.7.1.19). All reagents utilized in the method are commercially available. The procedure is a reliable preparative-scale method for synthesizing the dibarium salt of D-[14C]ribulose 1,5-biphosphate with a specific radioactivity up to 7 mCi/mmol and a purity near 90%. The final product was free of other 14C-labelled sugars, sugar phosphate esters, Pi and nucleotides.
