Crystallization (Commentary)

Crystallization (Comment) Organism
crystal structures of apo-CaiB, as well as its Asp169Ala mutant bound to CoA and to carnitinyl-CoA, to 1.6, 2.4, and 2.4 A resolution, respectively. CaiB is composed of two identical circular chains that together form an intertwined dimer. Each monomer consists of a large domain, containing a Rossmann fold, and a small domain. The CoA cofactor-binding site is formed at the interface of the large domain of one monomer and the small domain from the second monomer. Most of the protein-CoA interactions are formed with the Rossmann fold domain. CoA binding results in a change in the relative positions of the large and small domains compared with apo-CaiB Escherichia coli

D169A utation of the predicted key catalytic residue. Upon cocrystallization with crotonoyl-CoA, electron density is observed only for the CoA region of the cofactor, ending at the sulfur atom as for the wild-type enzyme. When both carnitine and crotonoyl-CoA are cocrystallized with the mutant enzyme, the electron density observed in the binding site is consistent with formation of the product, carnitinyl-CoA Escherichia coli
