Abstract
Structures of the dark-adapted state of a photoactivated adenylate cyclase were determined from serial crystallography (SX) data collected at room temperature at an X-ray free-electron laser and a synchrotron, and are compared with cryo-macromolecular crystallography (MX) synchrotron structures obtained by us and others. These structures of the wild-type enzyme in combination with the cryo-MX synchrotron structure of a light-sensor domain mutant provide insight into the hydrogen-bond network rearrangement upon blue-light illumination and pave the way for the determination of structural intermediates of the enzyme by time-resolved SX.
OaPAC is a recently discovered blue-light-using flavin adenosine dinucleotide (BLUF) photoactivated adenylate cyclase from the cyanobacterium Oscillatoria acuminata that uses adenosine triphosphate and translates the light signal into the production of cyclic adenosine monophosphate. Here, we report crystal structures of the enzyme in the absence of its natural substrate determined from room-temperature serial crystallography data collected at both an X-ray free-electron laser and a synchrotron, and we compare these structures with cryo-macromolecular crystallography structures obtained at a synchrotron by us and others. These results reveal slight differences in the structure of the enzyme due to data collection at different temperatures and X-ray sources. We further investigate the effect of the Y6W mutation in the BLUF domain, a mutation which results in a rearrangement of the hydrogen-bond network around the flavin and a notable rotation of the side chain of the critical Gln48 residue. These studies pave the way for picosecond–millisecond time-resolved serial crystallography experiments at X-ray free-electron lasers and synchrotrons in order to determine the early structural intermediates and correlate them with the well studied picosecond–millisecond spectroscopic intermediates.
期刊介绍:
IUCrJ is a new fully open-access peer-reviewed journal from the International Union of Crystallography (IUCr).
The journal will publish high-profile articles on all aspects of the sciences and technologies supported by the IUCr via its commissions, including emerging fields where structural results underpin the science reported in the article. Our aim is to make IUCrJ the natural home for high-quality structural science results. Chemists, biologists, physicists and material scientists will be actively encouraged to report their structural studies in IUCrJ.
