Abstract
The Keima family comprises large Stokes shift fluorescent proteins that are useful for dual-color fluorescence cross-correlation spectroscopy and multicolor imaging. The tKeima is a tetrameric large Stokes shift fluorescent protein and serves as the ancestor fluorescent protein for both dKeima and mKeima. The spectroscopic properties of tKeima have been previously reported; however, its structural basis and molecular properties have not yet been elucidated. In this study, we present the crystallographic results of the large Stokes shift fluorescent protein tKeima. The purified tKeima protein spontaneously crystallized after purification without further crystallization. The crystal structure of tKeima was determined at 3.0 Å resolution, revealing a β-barrel fold containing the Gln-Tyr-Gly chromophores mainly with cis-conformation. The tetrameric interfaces of tKeima were stabilized by numerous hydrogen bonds and salt-bridge interactions. These key residues distinguish the substituted residues in dKeima and mKeima. The key structure-based residues involved in the tetramer formation of tKeima provide insights into the generation of a new type of monomeric mKeima. This structural analysis expands our knowledge of the Keima family and provides insights into its protein engineering.

Abstract
Substrate-binding proteins (SBPs) are key elements in determining the substrate specificity and high affinity of the ATP-binding cassette uptake system. A typical SBP has two domains that recognize substrates and are responsible for the specific substrate delivery. Conversely, in GenBank, genes for SBPs constituting a single domain SBP are often found in vicinity of a methyl-accepting chemotaxis protein gene. However, the molecular function and mechanism of single domain SBPs are not fully elucidated. To understand their molecular functions, we performed a crystallographic study of single domain SBP from Rhodothermus marinus (RmSBP). RmSBP crystals were soaked in solution containing NaBr or HgCl2 and their structures determined at 1.75 and 2.3 Å resolution, respectively. RmSBP soaked in NaBr exhibited disorder of the α2-helix, β5-to β6-strand loop, and C-terminus region, showing the structural dynamic region of RmSBP. RmSBP soaked in HgCl2 showed that Hg2+ bound to Cys145 located between the α5-and α6-helices. The structural properties of RmSBP were compared with those of single domain SBP homologs. These results will contribute to continued identification of the molecular function and mechanism of single domain SBPs.

Xu Y, Nam KH. Data of the subatomic resolution structure of glucose isomerase complexed with xylitol inhibitor. Data Brief 2024; 52:109916.

Abstract
Glucose isomerase (GI) is a crucial enzyme in industrial processes, including the production of high-fructose corn syrup, biofuels, and other renewable chemicals. Understanding the mechanisms of GI inhibition by GI inhibitors can offer valuable insights into enhancing production efficiency. We previously reported the subatomic resolution structure of Streptomyces rubiginosus GI (SruGI) complexed with a xylitol inhibitor, determined at 0.99 Å resolution, was reported. Structural analysis showed that the xylitol inhibitor is partially bound to the M1 binding site at the SruGI active site, enabling it to distinguish the xylitol-bound and -free state of SruGI. This structural information demonstrates that xylitol binding to the M1 site causes a conformational change in the metal binding site and the substrate binding channel of SruGI. Herein, detailed information on data collection and processing procedures of the subatomic resolution structure of the SruGI complexed with xylitol was reported.

Abstract
Cyanase plays a vital role in the detoxification of cyanate and supplies a continuous nitrogen source for soil microbes by converting cyanate to ammonia and carbon dioxide in a bicarbonate-dependent reaction. The structures of cyanase complexed with dianion inhibitors, in conjunction with biochemical studies, suggest putative binding sites for substrates. However, the substrate-recognition and reaction mechanisms of cyanase remain unclear. Here, crystal structures of cyanase from Escherichia coli were determined in the native form and in complexes with cyanate, bicarbonate and intermediates at 1.5-1.9 Å resolution using synchrotron X-rays and an X-ray free-electron laser. Cyanate and bicarbonate interact with the highly conserved Arg96, Ser122 and Ala123 in the active site. In the presence of a mixture of cyanate and bicarbonate, three different electron densities for intermediates were observed in the cyanase structures. Moreover, the observed electron density could explain the dynamics of the substrate or product. In addition to conformational changes in the substrate-binding pocket, dynamic movement of Leu151 was observed, which functions as a gate for the passage of substrates or products. These findings provide a structural mechanism for the substrate-binding and reaction process of cyanase.

ADVANCED MATERIALS (DEERFIELD BEACH, FLA.) 2023; 35:e2305753. [PMID: 37722669 DOI: 10.1002/adma.202305753] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2023] [Revised: 08/13/2023] [Indexed: 09/20/2023]
Abstract
Designing chiral channels in organic frameworks presents an ongoing challenge due to the intricate control of size, shape, and functionality required. A novel approach is presented, which crafts enantiomeric chiral channels in metal-peptide networks (MPNs) by integrating short foldamer ligands with CuI clusters. The MPN structure serves as a 3D blueprint for host-guest chemistry, fostering modular substitution to refine chiral channel properties at the atomic scale. Incorporating hydrogen bond networks augments guest molecule interactions with the channel surface. This approach expedites enantiomer discrimination in racemic mixtures and incites adaptable guest molecules to take on specific axially chiral conformations. Distinct from traditional metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and conventional reticular architectures, this foldamer-based methodology provides a predictable and customizable host-guest interaction system within a 3D topology. This innovation sets the stage for multifunctional materials that merge host-guest interaction systems with metal-complex properties, opening up potential applications in catalysis, sensing, and drug delivery.

Abstract
Glucose isomerase (GI) is extensively used in the food industry for production of high-fructose corn syrup and for the production of biofuels and other renewable chemicals. Structure-based studies on GI inhibitors are important for improving its efficiency in industrial applications. Here, we report the subatomic crystal structure of Streptomyces rubiginosus GI (SruGI) complexed with its inhibitor, xylitol, at 0.99 Å resolution. Electron density map and temperature factor analysis showed partial binding of xylitol to the M1 metal binding site of SruGI, providing two different conformations of the metal binding site and the substrate binding channel. The xylitol molecule induced a conformational change in the M2 metal ion-interacting Asp255 residue, which subsequently led to a conformational change in the side chain of Asp181 residue. This led to the positional shift of Pro25 by 1.71 Å and side chain rotation of Phe26 by 21°, where located on the neighboring protomer in tetrameric SruGI. The conformation change of these two residues affect the size of the substrate-binding channel of GI. Therefore, xylitol binding to M1 site of SruGI induces not only a conformational changes of the metal-binding site, but also conformational change of substrate-binding channel of the tetrameric SruGI. These results expand our knowledge about the mechanism underlying the inhibitory effect of xylitol on GI.

Abstract
Coordination complexes, particularly metalloproteins, highlight the significance of metal-sulfur bonds in biological processes. Their unique attributes inspire efforts to synthetically reproduce these intricate metal-sulfur motifs. Here, we investigate the synthesis and characterization of copper(I)-thioether coordination complexes derived from copper(I) halides and the chiral cyclic β-amino acid trans-4-aminotetrahydrothiophene-3-carboxylic acid (ATTC), which present distinctive structural properties and ligand-to-metal ratios. By incorporating ATTC as the ligand, we generated complexes that feature a unique chiral conformation and the capacity for hydrogen bonding, facilitating the formation of distinct geometric structures. Through spectroscopic analyses and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we studied the complexes' optical properties, including their emission bands and variable second-harmonic generation (SHG) efficiencies, which vary based on the halide used. Our findings underscore the potential of the ATTC ligand in creating unusual coordination complexes and pave the way for further investigations into their potential applications, particularly within materials science.

Abstract
The dynamics and structure of mixed phases in a complex fluid can significantly impact its material properties, such as viscoelasticity. Small-angle X-ray Photon Correlation Spectroscopy (SA-XPCS) can probe the spontaneous spatial fluctuations of the mixed phases under various in situ environments over wide spatiotemporal ranges (10-6-103 s /10-10-10-6 m). Tailored material design, however, requires searching through a massive number of sample compositions and experimental parameters, which is beyond the bandwidth of the current coherent X-ray beamline. Using 3.7-μs-resolved XPCS synchronized with the clock frequency at the Advanced Photon Source, we demonstrated the consistency between the Brownian dynamics of ~100 nm diameter colloidal silica nanoparticles measured from an enclosed pendant drop and a sealed capillary. The electronic pipette can also be mounted on a robotic arm to access different stock solutions and create complex fluids with highly-repeatable and precisely controlled composition profiles. This closed-loop, AI-executable protocol is applicable to light scattering techniques regardless of the light wavelength and optical coherence, and is a first step towards high-throughput, autonomous material discovery.

Abstract
ID23-2 is a fixed-energy (14.2 keV) microfocus beamline at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) dedicated to macromolecular crystallography. The optics and sample environment have recently been redesigned and rebuilt to take full advantage of the upgrade of the ESRF to the fourth generation Extremely Brilliant Source (ESRF-EBS). The upgraded beamline now makes use of two sets of compound refractive lenses and multilayer mirrors to obtain a highly intense (>1013 photons s-1) focused microbeam (minimum size 1.5 µm × 3 µm full width at half-maximum). The sample environment now includes a FLEX-HCD sample changer/storage system, as well as a state-of-the-art MD3Up high-precision multi-axis diffractometer. Automatic data reduction and analysis are also provided for more advanced protocols such as synchrotron serial crystallographic experiments.

Processing of Multicrystal Diffraction Patterns in Macromolecular Crystallography Using Serial Crystallography Programs. CRYSTALS 2022.

Abstract
Cryocrystallography is a widely used method for determining the crystal structure of macromolecules. This technique uses a cryoenvironment, which significantly reduces the radiation damage to the crystals and has the advantage of requiring only one crystal for structural determination. In standard cryocrystallography, a single crystal is used for collecting diffraction data, which include single-crystal diffraction patterns. However, the X-ray data recorded often may contain diffraction patterns from several crystals. The indexing of multicrystal diffraction patterns in cryocrystallography requires more precise data processing techniques and is therefore time consuming. Here, an approach for processing multicrystal diffraction data using a serial crystallography program is introduced that allows for the integration of multicrystal diffraction patterns from a single image. Multicrystal diffraction data were collected from lysozyme crystals and processed using the serial crystallography program CrystFEL. From 360 images containing multicrystal diffraction patterns, 1138 and 691 crystal lattices could be obtained using the XGANDALF and MOSFLM indexing algorithms, respectively. Using this indexed multi-lattice information, the crystal structure of the lysozyme could be determined successfully at a resolution of 1.9 Å. Therefore, the proposed approach, which is based on serial crystallography, is suitable for processing multicrystal diffraction data in cryocrystallography.
