Glucdrp) and L-Lyxonate Dehydratase Proteins (Lyxd) MINING THE ENOLASE SUPERFAMILY FOR NEW FUNCTIONS: INVESTIGATIONS OF D-GLUCARATE DEHYDRATASE RELATED PROTEINS (GLUCDRP) AND L-LYXONATE DEHYDRATASE PROTEINS (LYXD) BY SALEHE GHASEM PUR DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Biochemistry in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2014 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor John A. Gerlt, Chair Professor Wilfred A. van der Donk Professor James H. Morrissey Professor Emad Tajkhorshid ABSTRACT Genomic era begins with development of sequencing methods. Genome sequencing is now cost-effective and fast, giving rise to increasing amounts of genomic data. However, the function of 1% of the deposited sequences have been experimentally characterized. There is no robust method of functional assignment for these sequences. Functional assignments are now performed using a variety of software tools to utilize the known biochemical data of characterized proteins to annotate similar sequences in genome databases. With this large scale automatic annotations of genome databases, annotations were transferred from homologs regardless of their reliability which result in propagation of errors and transfer misleading information to scientific community. Nevertheless, annotating the homologs within a superfamily is a valid approach. To this end, the enolase superfamily is an excellent model system for functional assignment. Structurally, this superfamily contain substrate specificity residues in the N-terminal capping domain and catalytic residues in the C-terminal barrel domain. These proteins with the common structural fold have the ability to abstract a proton α to carboxylate on the substrate before proceeding to dehydration, epimerization, deamination, racemization or cycloisomerization. There have been enough studies of this superfamily to provide valuable insight into the types of reactions performed based on catalytic residues and substrate specificity residues, establishing basis for functional characterization of unknown members. In this thesis, I discuss my efforts on characterizing an enolase superfamily member: D- glucarate dehydratase related protein (GlucDRP). GlucDRP share more than 60% sequence identity with GlucD, a well-characterized protein. I showed that there is a protein-protein interaction between GlucD and GlucDRP which form a detectable heterospecies. The kinetics of heterospecies, isolated from wild type E. coli, was equal to an average of the activity of a GlucD ii and a GlucDRP. Additionally, to determine what percent of GlucDRPs involves in the formation of the heterospecies, a hexahistidine-tag was introduces upstream of the GlucDRP gene in the E. coli chromosome and it was shown that more than half of expressed GlucDRP forms heterospecies. Finally, the three-dimensional crystal structure of the heterospecies was determined which confirmed the formation of α2/β2 tetramers of GlucD and GlucDRP. At a BLAST e-value of 10-175, three clusters of GlucDRPs segregated from the authentic GlucD. Structural alignments of GlucD and GlucDRP proteins showed good superposition between these structures except in 100s loop, which interacts with the substrate and closes the active site upon entrance of the substrates. This structural differences may be responsible for differences in catalytic activity. I investigated the protein-protein interaction between GlucD and GlucDRP from the three GlucDRP clusters in three organisms: Burkholderia cepacia, Actinobacillus succinogenes 130Z, and Ralstonia pickettii 12j and the formation of heterospecies in these proteins were confirmed. Additionally, I showed that GlucDRP promotes faster growth on glucarate media. D-glucarate is a component of urine, and as an occasional colonizer of the bladder and urinary tract, E. coli might have evolved mechanisms to rapidly catabolize a less favored source of energy like D-glucarate and outcompete other resident microorganisms. In this thesis, I assigned a novel function, L-lyxonate dehydratase activity, to a mandelate racemase (MR) subgroup of the enolase superfamily. In vitro and in vivo data were combined here to show that the dehydration of L-lyxonate is the biological role of the enzymes in this protein family. Through in vitro experiment, catalytic efficiency of ~ 104 M-1s-1 was measured for L- lyxonate dehydratase protein. In vivo growth studies revealed that L-lyxonate is a carbon source for Pseudomonas aeruginosa and transcriptome analysis showed that the L-lyxonate dehydratase iii gene along with some neighboring genes were expressed in L-lyxonate grown cells. The neighboring genes were cloned and purified to be tested on the L-lyxonate degradation intermediates and it was shown that upon dehydration of L-lyxonate and formation of 2-keto-3- deoxy-L-lyxonate, a second dehydratase act to convert the product to yield α-ketoglutarate semialdehyde. In the final step a dehydrogenase oxidizes α-ketoglutarate semialdehyde to α- ketoglutarate, an intermediate in the citric acid cycle. Mutational studies revealed that L-lyxonate dehydratase proteins possess a catalytic His-Asp dyad at the end of the seventh and six β-strands of the (β/α)7β-barrel domain and a KxR motif at the end of second β-strand. This is the first example of an L-lyxonate dehydratase in the enolase superfamily and the first example of a pathway for degradation of L-lyxonate. iv For my dear dad and mom For my dear sisters, Atefeh and Vida And For my darling daughter and husband v ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express the deepest appreciation to my thesis advisor, Dr. John A.

Protein similarity networks, one approach to function annota- tion via annotation transfer, group proteins into similarity-based clusters. An underlying assump- tion is that the edge metric used to identify such clusters correlates with functional information. In this contribution, this assumption is evaluated by observing topologies in similarity networks using three different edge metrics: sequence (BLAST), structure (TM-Align), and active site similarity (active site profiling, implemented in DASP). Network topologies for four well-studied protein superfamilies (enolase, peroxiredoxin (Prx), glutathione transferase (GST), and crotonase) were compared with curated functional hierarchies and structure. As expected, network topology differs, depending on edge metric; comparison of topologies provides valuable information on structure/ function relationships. Subnetworks based on active site similarity correlate with known functional hierarchies at a single edge threshold more often than sequence- or structure-based networks.

  • Functional Assignments in the Enolase Superfamily: Investigations of Two Divergent Groups of D-Galacturonate Dehydratases and Galactarate Dehydratase-Iii
    FUNCTIONAL ASSIGNMENTS IN THE ENOLASE SUPERFAMILY: INVESTIGATIONS OF TWO DIVERGENT GROUPS OF D-GALACTURONATE DEHYDRATASES AND GALACTARATE DEHYDRATASE-III BY FIONA PATRICIA GRONINGER-POE i DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Biochemistry in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2014 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor John A. Gerlt, Chair Professor John E. Cronan, Jr. Associate Professor Rutilo Fratti Associate Professor Raven H. Huang ABSTRACT More than a decade after the genomic age, full genome sequencing is cost-effective and fast, allowing for the deposit of an ever increasing number of DNA sequences. New fields have arisen from this availability of genomic information, and the way we think about biochemistry and enzymology has been transformed. Unfortunately, there is no robust method for accurately determining the functions of enzymes encoded by these sequences that matches the speed in which genomes are deposited into public databases. Functional assignment of enzymes remains of utmost importance in understanding microbial metabolism and has applications in agriculture by examining bacterial plant pathogen metabolism and additionally in human health by providing metabolic context to the human gut microbiome. To aid in the functional identification of proteins, enzymes can be grouped into superfamilies which share common structural motifs as well as mechanistic features. To this end, the enolase superfamily is an excellent model system for functional assignment because more than half of the members still lack functional identification. Structurally, these enzymes contain substrate specificity residues in the N-terminal capping domain and catalytic residues in the C-terminal barrel domain.

    Supplemental Material Genome-scale fitness profile of Caulobacter crescentus grown in natural freshwater Kristy L. Hentchel, Leila M. Reyes Ruiz, Aretha Fiebig, Patrick D. Curtis, Maureen L. Coleman, Sean Crosson Tn5 and Tn-Himar: comparing gene essentiality and the effects of gene disruption on fitness across studies A previous analysis of a highly saturated Caulobacter Tn5 transposon library revealed a set of genes that are required for growth in complex PYE medium [1]; approximately 14% of genes in the genome were deemed essential. The total genome insertion coverage was lower in the Himar library described here than in the Tn5 dataset of Christen et al (2011), as Tn-Himar inserts specifically into TA dinucleotide sites (with 67% GC content, TA sites are relatively limited in the Caulobacter genome). Genes for which we failed to detect Tn-Himar insertions (Table S13) were largely consistent with essential genes reported by Christen et al [1], with exceptions likely due to differential coverage of Tn5 versus Tn-Himar mutagenesis and differences in metrics used to define essentiality. A comparison of the essential genes defined by Christen et al and by our Tn5-seq and Tn-Himar fitness studies is presented in Table S4. We have uncovered evidence for gene disruptions that both enhanced or reduced strain fitness in lake water and M2X relative to PYE. Such results are consistent for a number of genes across both the Tn5 and Tn-Himar datasets. Disruption of genes encoding three metabolic enzymes, a class C β-lactamase family protein (CCNA_00255), transaldolase (CCNA_03729), and methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase (CCNA_02250), enhanced Caulobacter fitness in Lake Michigan water relative to PYE using both Tn5 and Tn-Himar approaches (Table S7).

    Structures, Functions, and Mechanisms of Filament Forming Enzymes: A Renaissance of Enzyme Filamentation A Review By Chad K. Park & Nancy C. Horton Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology University of Arizona Tucson, AZ 85721 N. C. Horton ([email protected], ORCID: 0000-0003-2710-8284) C. K. Park ([email protected], ORCID: 0000-0003-1089-9091) Keywords: Enzyme, Regulation, DNA binding, Nuclease, Run-On Oligomerization, self-association 1 Abstract Filament formation by non-cytoskeletal enzymes has been known for decades, yet only relatively recently has its wide-spread role in enzyme regulation and biology come to be appreciated. This comprehensive review summarizes what is known for each enzyme confirmed to form filamentous structures in vitro, and for the many that are known only to form large self-assemblies within cells. For some enzymes, studies describing both the in vitro filamentous structures and cellular self-assembly formation are also known and described. Special attention is paid to the detailed structures of each type of enzyme filament, as well as the roles the structures play in enzyme regulation and in biology. Where it is known or hypothesized, the advantages conferred by enzyme filamentation are reviewed. Finally, the similarities, differences, and comparison to the SgrAI system are also highlighted. 2 Contents INTRODUCTION…………………………………………………………..4 STRUCTURALLY CHARACTERIZED ENZYME FILAMENTS…….5 Acetyl CoA Carboxylase (ACC)……………………………………………………………………5 Phosphofructokinase (PFK)……………………………………………………………………….6
