GLUTATHIONE S-TRANSFERASE FUSED WITH THE NUCLEAR MATRIX TARGETING SIGNAL OF THE TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR AML-1GLUTATHIONE S-TRANSFERASE FUSED WITH THE NUCLEAR MATRIX TARGETING SIGNAL OF THE TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR AML-1
Structural highlights
FunctionGST26_SCHJA Conjugation of reduced glutathione to a wide number of exogenous and endogenous hydrophobic electrophiles. GST isoenzymes appear to play a central role in the parasite detoxification system. Other functions are also suspected including a role in increasing the solubility of haematin in the parasite gut. Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf. Publication Abstract from PubMedA glutathione S-transferase fused with the nuclear matrix targeting signal (GST-NMTS) of AML-1/CBF-alpha2 has been crystallized by the vapor diffusion method using polyethylene glycol (PEG) as the precipitant. The NMTS is a 31-amino-acid signal peptide that can target the AML-1/CBF-alpha2 protein to the nuclear matrix. The crystal belongs to tetragonal space group P43212 with unit cell dimensions a = b = 93.4 A, c = 57.6 A. There is one GST-fusion protein per asymmetric unit. Crystals diffracted to at least 2.7 A and are appropriate for structure determination.
