Crystal structure of hypothetical protein of unknown function from pyrococcus horikoshii OT3
OverviewOverview
The Pyrococcus horikoshii OT3 protein PH0500 is highly conserved within, the Pyrococcus genus of hyperthermophilic archaea and shows low amino-acid, sequence similarity with a family of PIN-domain proteins. The protein has, been expressed, purified and crystallized in two crystal forms: PH0500-I, and PH0500-II. The structure was determined at 2.0 A by the multiple, anomalous dispersion method using a selenomethionyl derivative of crystal, form PH0500-I (PH0500-I-Se). The structure of PH0500-I has been refined at, 1.75 A resolution to an R factor of 20.9% and the structure of PH0500-II, has been refined at 2.0 A resolution to an R factor of 23.4%. In both, crystal forms as well as in solution the molecule appears to be a dimer., Searches of the databases for protein-fold similarities confirmed that the, PH0500 protein is a PIN-domain protein with possible exonuclease activity, and involvement in DNA or RNA editing.
