TRIOSEPHOSPHATE ISOMERASE FROM THERMOPROTEUS TENAX
OverviewOverview
Triosephophate isomerase (TIM) is a dimeric enzyme in eucarya, bacteria, and mesophilic archaea. In hyperthermophilic archaea, however, TIM exists, as a tetramer composed of monomers that are about 10% shorter than other, eucaryal and bacterial TIM monomers. We report here the crystal structure, of TIM from Thermoproteus tenax, a hyperthermophilic archaeon that has an, optimum growth temperature of 86 degrees C. The structure was determined, from both a hexagonal and an orthorhombic crystal form to resolutions of, 2.5A and 2.3A, and refined to R-factors of 19.7% and 21.5%, respectively., In both crystal forms, T.tenax TIM exists as a tetramer of the familiar, (betaalpha)(8)-barrel. In solution, however, and unlike other, hyperthermophilic TIMs, the T.tenax enzyme exhibits an equilibrium ... [(full description)]
