drug development | enzyme ChuY is a potential target for the development of antibacterial or antivirulence drugs to combat not only UPEC but a broad range of pathogenic bacteria that contain chuY system or its orthologue, ranging from Vibrio to staphylococcal species | Escherichia coli |
Cloned (Comment) | Organism |
---|---|
gene chuY, encoded in the chu gene cluster of strain CFT073, recombinant expression as His-tagged enzyme in Escherichia coli, complementation of an Escherichia coli chuY-knockout strain with expression of the wild-type gene | Escherichia coli |
Crystallization (Comment) | Organism |
---|---|
purified recombinant His-tagged enzyme, using 0.1 M Bis-Tris, pH 6.5, 50 mM CaCl2, and 30% PEG MME 550 as precipitants, ChuY crystals belong to the primitive monoclinic space group P21 with two molecules forming an asymmetric unit, multi-wavelength anomalous dispersion, using a SeMet-labeled crystal at a resolution of 2.4 A | Escherichia coli |

monomer | ChuY exists as a monomer in solution, SDS-PAGE and gel filtration | Escherichia coli |
More | the two molecules in the asymmetric unit are related by pseudo 2fold rotation symmetry. ChuY contains six alpha-helices and ten beta-strands. A central beta-sheet, consisting of seven parallel beta-strands, beta1, beta2, beta3, beta4, beta5, beta6, and beta10, is flanked by six alpha-helices, forming alternating beta-strand and alpha-helix repeats, which is a representative feature of Rossmann folds. Three other beta-strands (beta7-beta9) are located on the top of the beta-sheet | Escherichia coli |

General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
evolution | gene chuY is highly conserved in a broad range of pathogenic bacteria | Escherichia coli |
malfunction | a chuY deletion-insertion strain shows reduced survival potential compared to wild-type and complemented strains in mammalian cells | Escherichia coli |
physiological function | ChuY has flavin mononucleotide (FMN) reductase activity, using NAD(P)H as a cofactor, and shows porphyrin ring binding affinity. ChuY acts as a reductase in heme homeostasis to maintain the virulence potential of Escherichia coli strain CFT073 | Escherichia coli |
