G152A MUTANT OF MYCOBACTERIUM TUBERCULOSIS IRON-SUPEROXIDE DISMUTASE.
OverviewOverview
We have refined the X-ray structure of a site-directed G152A mutant of the, iron-dependent superoxide dismutase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis at 2.9, angstroms resolution. The mutation which replaces a glycine residue in a, surface loop with alanine was designed to alter the conformation of this, loop region which has previously been shown to play a crucial structural, role in quaternary interactions within the SOD tetramer. Gly-152 was, targeted as it has dihedral angles (phi = 83.1 degrees, psi = -0.3, degrees) close to the left-handed alpha-helical conformation which is, rarely adopted by other amino acids except asparagine. Gly-152 was, replaced by alanine as it has similar size and polarity, yet has a very, low tendency to adopt similar conformations. X-ray data collection on, crystals of this mutant at 2.9 angstroms resolution and subsequent, least-squares refinement to an R-value of 0.169 clearly establish that the, loop conformation is unaffected. Fluorescence studies of guanidine, hydrochloride denaturation establish that the mutant is 4 kcal/mol less, stable than the wild-type enzyme. Our results indicate that strict, conformational constraints imposed upon a region of polypeptide, due for, example to interactions with a neighbouring subunit, may force an alanine, residue to adopt this sterically hindered conformation with a consequent, reduction in stability of the folded conformation.
