  1. Progress in Who-Ville David Cooper Zygmunt Derewenda Lab

  2. Surface Entropy ReductionAlters surface features that inhibit crystallization. • Large, flexible residues on the surface can inhibit crystallization. • Lysines and Glutamates are primarily responsible for an “entropy shield” Lysine Glutamate Rotamers Rotamers Candidate Proteins: • Soluble and purify well. • Difficult to crystallize or diffract poorly. • Contain a cluster of highly-entropic residues. • Don’t have other problems.

  3. The Standard Process Ni Affinity  (Gel Filtration)  Concentrate Screened with JCSG+ suite with standard and alternate reservoir screns Some clones express better than others. High purity can be achieved.

  4. Streamlining our Pipeline • Using Google Calendar to schedule equipment. • Using Google Docs and Spreadsheets to track target progress.

  5. Streamlining our Pipeline Protein Expression Highlights • Using Pepsi Bottles doubles shaker space • Now 9 proteins a day capacity • We get ours free from the local Pepsi Bottling Plant! • Lining centrifuge bottles with zipper bags (Dramatically reduces harvesting time) • Growth and harvesting are done by a 2 person team (Reduces demand on 1 individual.)

  6. Streamlining our Pipeline Crystallization • Alternate reservoir and standard screening by default. • Mosquito Crystallization Robot for screening. • Custom BioRobot3000 application with web interface: Crystallization Grid Screen Generator http://ginsberg.med.virginia.edu/grid.html Can be used as a calculator for manual pipetting, too.

  13. Lots of poorly diffracting crystals

  14. They are getting better. Minmin’s new crystals! SeMet Crystals of Tm1024 -1A – needs better cryo conditions.

  15. Data Sets • March Tm1024-1A (Low resolution – maybe 5.5 Tm1024-1Y w/ Br (incomplete crystal died) (Potentially I212121 a=69.5 b=120.5 c=164.5) • April Tm1024_1Y w/ Br to ~ 3.5 ish P3121 or P3221 a=70.5 b=70.5 c=81.3 Weak anomalous signal • June Tm1024-1A p3121 a=72.2 b=72.2 c=82.1 ~3.1Å Tm1024-1A p3121 a=72.7 b=72.7 c=82.1 ~3.1Å • July Tm1024-1A P3121 a=73.9 b=73.9 c=82.7 3 Wavelength Br MAD to ~2.7

  18. TM0439-Looking for a Model

  19. Tm0439 N-terminal Domain

  20. Tm0439 – C terminal Domain ~90° The C-terminal domain has some internal symmetry that may complicate MR.

  21. Tm0439 There is a lot of variation of the relative orientations of the two domains within the family. I have tried all MR with complete models (unmodified and alanine-only models), with the N- and C- termini independently and at the same time, and with multiple models for one “ensemble” in Phaser. I still think a solution is possible, but lets just proceed with some SeMet.

  29. APC1446 – hypothetical protein of unknown function 144 sequences, primarily from Bacteroidetes and Bacillales identified using BLAST Prediction by 3D Jury suggests similarity to thioredoxins and related protein, but the J-score is below the suggested threshold of significance

  30. Data collection was tricky Because of a long unit cell (307 – 314 Å)

  31. Data collection was tricky And died quickly giving low completeness. Notice the burning of this crystal. Then Minmin worked her magic.

  32. APC 1446 has an unusual putative active site sequence V V V N S V C G _C A A

  33. SER server predicts only three suitable sites AA A YY Y AA YY AA YY

  34. APC1446 crystallizes with four molecules in the asymmetric unit, generating a non-crystallographic two-fold

  35. The four molecules in the AU are virtually identical A B C D

  36. Only one of the several crystal contacts appears to be mediated by the mutated patch
