Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of tyrosinase from the mushroomAgaricus bisporus

Abstract: Tyrosinase catalyzes the conversion of tyrosine to dihydroxyphenylalanine quinone, which is the main precursor for the biosynthesis of melanin. The enzyme from Agaricus bisporus, the common button mushroom, was purified and crystallized in two different space groups. Crystals belonging to space group P2 1 (unit-cell parameters a = 104.2, b = 105.0, c = 119.1 Å , = 110.6, four molecules per asymmetric unit) diffracted to 3.0 Å resolution. Crystals belonging to space group P2 1 2 1 2 (unit-cell parameters a = 10… Show more

“…In the sequence of MT, as shown in Figure 1, the residues numbered 61, 85, 94, 259, 263, and 296 are metal binding sites of Cu +2 which among, the amino acids numbered 61, 85, and 94 are binding sites of copper 1 (Cu +1 ) and amino acids numbered 259, 263, and 296 are binding sites of copper 2 (Cu +2 ). Also, the amino acids numbered 293-293 are cleavage sites (4,5). Four genes including Abppo1 (Uniprot protein sequence database entry Q00024) and Abppo2 (O42713) (6), and Abppo3 (C7FF04) and Abppo4 (C7FF05) (7) are responsible for coding of Agaricus bisporus tyrosinase.…”

“…Purification and crystallization of the enzyme were done as described elsewhere. 13 Briefly, tyrosinase crystals were obtained at room temperature using the hanging-drop vapor diffusion technique with drops made of a 1:1 mixture of protein solution (∼6 mg/mL) in 10 mM HEPES buffer, pH 7.5, and reservoir solution, containing 10% (w/v) PEG4000 in 100 mM sodium acetate buffer, pH 4.6, with 5 mM holmium chloride as additive. After 4À5 days two different crystal forms appeared in the drops, belonging to space groups P2 1 2 1 2 or P2 1 .…”

“…Tyrosinase is associated with pigmentation catalyzing the first step in melanin biosynthesis – a pigment ubiquitously present in all phyla [6]. The structure of mushroom ( Agaricus bisporus ) tyrosinase (abTy) is a tetrameric protein with 2 heavy (H, 392 aa, ~43 kDa) and 2 light (L, 150 aa, ~14 kDa) chains (2.30 Å resolution, 2Y9W) [7, 8]. As a derivative of the ppo3 gene, the fungal enzyme is structurally homologous to other tyrosinases, only larger with 110 more residues present as loops connecting conserved secondary structural elements.…”
