Crystal structure of F17b-G in complex with N-acetyl-D-glucosamineCrystal structure of F17b-G in complex with N-acetyl-D-glucosamine
Structural highlights
Function[F17BG_ECOLX] Essential fimbrial adhesion factor that mediates binding to N-acetylglucosamine-containing receptors in the host intestinal microvilli, leading to colonization of the intestinal tissue, and diarrhea or septicemia. Also confers adhesiveness to laminin and basement membranes. Publication Abstract from PubMedSince the introduction of structural genomics, the protein has been recognized as the most important variable in crystallization. Recent strategies to modify a protein to improve crystal quality have included rationally engineered point mutations, truncations, deletions and fusions. Five naturally occurring variants, differing in 1-18 amino acids, of the 177-residue lectin domain of the F17G fimbrial adhesin were expressed and purified in identical ways. For four out of the five variants crystals were obtained, mostly in non-isomorphous space groups, with diffraction limits ranging between 2.4 and 1.1 A resolution. A comparative analysis of the crystal-packing contacts revealed that the variable amino acids are often involved in lattice contacts and a single amino-acid substitution can suffice to radically change crystal packing. A statistical approach proved reliable to estimate the compatibilities of the variant sequences with the observed crystal forms. In conclusion, natural variation, universally present within prokaryotic species, is a valuable genetic resource that can be favourably employed to enhance the crystallization success rate with considerably less effort than other strategies.
