'''THERMUS THERMOPHILUS CYTOCHROME C552 SYNTHESIZED BY ESCHERICHIA COLI'''<br />

==Overview==

We describe the design of Escherichia coli cells that synthesize a, structurally perfect, recombinant cytochrome c from the Thermus, thermophilus cytochrome c552 gene. Key features are (1) construction of a, plasmid-borne, chimeric cycA gene encoding an Escherichia coli-compatible, N-terminal signal sequence (MetLysIleSerIleTyrAlaThrLeu, AlaAlaLeuSerLeuAlaLeuProAlaGlyAla) followed by the amino acid sequence of, mature Thermus cytochrome c552; and (2) coexpression of the chimeric cycA, gene with plasmid-borne, host-specific cytochrome c maturation genes, (ccmABCDEFGH). Approximately 1 mg of purified protein is obtained from 1 L, of culture medium. The recombinant protein, cytochrome rsC552, and native, cytochrome c552 have identical redox potentials and are equally active as, electron transfer substrates toward cytochrome ba3, a Thermus heme-copper, oxidase. Native and recombinant cytochromes c were compared and found to, be identical using circular dichroism, optical absorption, resonance, Raman, and 500 MHz 1H-NMR spectroscopies. The 1.7 A resolution X-ray, crystallographic structure of the recombinant protein was determined and, is indistinguishable from that reported for the native protein (Than, ME, Hof P, Huber R, Bourenkov GP, Bartunik HD, Buse G, Soulimane T, 1997, J, Mol Biol 271:629-644). This approach may be generally useful for, expression of alien cytochrome c genes in E. coli.
