== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
The X-ray crystal structure of recombinant wild-type azurin from Pseudomonas aeruginosa was determined by difference Fourier techniques using phases derived from the structure of the mutant His35Leu. Two data sets were collected from a single crystal of oxidized azurin soaked in mother liquor buffered at pH 5.5 and pH 9.0, respectively. Both data sets extend to 1.93 A resolution. The two pH forms were refined independently to crystallographic R-factors of 17.6% (pH 5.5) and 17.5% (pH 9.0). The conformational transition previously attributed to the protonation/deprotonation of residue His35 (pKa(red) = 7.3, pKa(ox) = 6.2), which lies in a crevice of the protein close to the copper binding site, involves a concomitant Pro36-Gly37 main-chain peptide bond flip. At the lower pH, the protonated imidazole N delta 1 of His35 forms a strong hydrogen bond with the carbonyl oxygen from Pro36, while at alkaline pH the deprotonated N delta 1 acts as an acceptor of a weak hydrogen bond from HN Gly37. The structure of the remainder of the azurin molecule, including the copper binding site, is not significantly affected by this transition.
