| Popis: | Coenzyme F(420)-dependent methylenetetrahydromethanopterin dehydrogenase (Mtd) is an enzyme involved in methanogenic energy metabolism which reversibly catalyzes the reduction of methenyltetrahydromethanopterin (methenyl-H(4)MPT(+)) to methylenetetrahydromethanopterin (methylene-H(4)MPT). The enzyme from the hyperthermophilic methanoarchaeon Methanopyrus kandleri could be crystallized: the non-labelled enzyme had unit-cell parameters a = 119.1, b = 151.0, c = 219.4 A and space group C222(1), while the selenomethionine-labelled enzyme had unit-cell parameters a = 119.6, b = 151.0, c = 109.9 A and also belonged to space group C222(1), indicating a surprising bisection of the c axis. The crystals grown from the non-labelled and labelled enzyme contained six and three monomers in the asymmetric unit and diffracted to about 1.9 and 1.5 A, respectively. The crystal packing of the two crystal forms seems to be similar. In particular, the crystals of the selenomethionine-labelled enzyme are highly suitable for X-ray structure determination. |
