Crystal structure of the hypthetical Mycoplasma protein, MPN555
Overview
The crystal structure of the hypothetical protein MPN555 from Mycoplasma, pneumoniae (gi|1673958) has been determined to a resolution of 2.8, Angstrom using anomalous diffraction data at the Se-peak wavelength., Structure determination revealed a mostly alpha-helical protein with a, three-lobed shape. The three lobes or fingers delineate a central binding, groove and additional grooves between lobes 1 and 3 and between lobes 2, and 3. For one of the molecules in the asymmetric unit, the central, binding pocket was filled with a peptide from the uncleaved N-terminal, affinity tag. The MPN555 structure has structural homology to two, bacterial chaperone proteins: SurA and trigger factor from Escherichia, coli. The structural data and the homology to other chaperone proteins, suggests an involvement in protein folding as a molecular chaperone for, MPN555.
