X-Ray Crystallographic Studies of Hemk from Thermotoga maritima, an N5-Glutamine Methyltransferase

The enzyme HemK (or PrmC) is one of the first identified methyltransferases that modify glutamine. It methylates the highly conserved GGQ motif in class I release factors (RF1 and RF2) in Escherichia coli. HemK from Thermotoga maritima was over-expressed and crystallized in the presence of S-adensyl...

Zusammenfassung:The enzyme HemK (or PrmC) is one of the first identified methyltransferases that modify glutamine. It methylates the highly conserved GGQ motif in class I release factors (RF1 and RF2) in Escherichia coli. HemK from Thermotoga maritima was over-expressed and crystallized in the presence of S-adensylmethionine at 296 K using ammonium sulfate as the precipitant.
