  4. Rost Clusters “Clusters of Homologous Proteins” • pairwise seq id greater than about 30% • no represenatives in PDB. • small (< 340 AA) full length proteins Each of the Rost Clusters has at least one homologue in Target Eukaryotic Genomes: human, worm, fly, yeast, (arabidopsis) Samples prepared from Reagent Genomes: human, worm, fly, yeast, E coli, M. thermoauto, T. maritima, B. subtilis, A. aeolicus, A. thalia, etc.

  5. A. aeolicus A. thaliana B. subtilis C. elegans D. melanogaster E. coli H. influenzae H. pylori S. cerevisiae S. aureus T. thermophilus NESG Target List Phylogenetic Distribution 1% 2% 1% 24% 38% worm yeast fly 1% 21% 4% 8% 1879 Rost Cluster Targets + ~ 20 Technology Development Targets - MTH

  6. There are over 2400 Protein Targets in SPINE Mark Gerstein, et al.

  8. Multiplexed Construct Generation Classical Restriction Enzyme / Ligation cloning

  9. Gateway Recombinational Cloning Recombinational Cloning - efficient, fast, less steps - extensive Gateway libraries - avoid ligation - high efficiency or avoid colony PCR Using the existing destination vectors and libraries of cloned ORFs 15 extraneous N-term amino acids + HexaHis - 8 from AttB site - 7 from Invitrogen constuction Can affect with solubility and complicate structure determination Engineer in protease cleavage site - Adds PCR steps - Cannot go straight from available Gateway ORF Libraries - Efficiency of cleavage - Additional steps in purification - Added complexity 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15

  10. MJ Minimal Media for Isotope Enrichment Jansson, M.; Li, Y.-C.; Jendeberg, L.; Anderson, S.; Montelione, G.T.; Nilsson, B. J. Biomol. NMR 1996, 7: 131 - 141. High level production of uniformly 15N- and 13C-enriched fusion proteins in Escherichia coli. Works well when growing bacteria in 95% 2H2O Works well for SeMet labeling when supplemented with amino acids to suppress metabolic shuffling

  11. Screening for Protein “Foldedness”1H - 15N HSQC Spectra 15N 1H ppm 1H ppm T. thermophilus BRCT domain D. melanogaster P1CT domain

  12. Protein Production for X-Ray Crystallography and NMR Studies Analytical Gel Filtration with Static / Dynamic Light Scattering Protein Purification with Ni-NTA Affinity Column Protein Expression using 15N-MJ Media Pure 6xHis-Tagged Protein (> 20 mg) Ion Exchange (optional) Preparative Gel Filtration under Monodisperse Conditions HSQC (~ 3 mg) Robotic Crystallization Trials (~ 8 mg) Manual Crystallization Trials (~ 8 mg) CD Spectroscopy (~ 1 mg) SDS-PAGE and Mass Spec 10 - 20 mg 13C,15N or 2H,13C,15N-enriched Protein for NMR Studies Crystals 20 mg SeMet-enriched Protein for Crystallization Optimization and X-Ray Crystallography

  15. Restriction Enzyme / Ligase Based Cloning Template Colony PCR cDNA synthesis (RT-PCR) Plate / Colony Pick DGC1.0 (384 well plates) Genomic DNA Transformation Gel-Loading PCR-set up Ligation PCR cleanup Mini-prep Glycerol stock Archiving Expression Screening Purification of Cut PCR Product RE digestion

  16. PCR - Set up usingBioRobot 8000 Drosophila Targets Product obtained with Correct size A1 - B12 Bacillus subtillis (30) 95% Aquifex aeolicus (20) 91% Archea (60) 93% Drosophila melanogaster (60) 80% C1 - D12 Drosophila Gene Collection (DGC 1.0) Rubin et al., Science 2000

  17. Concentrating Inserts Lyophilization Resuspend at high concentration in H2O Concentration of inserts (cleaved, purified PCR products of the ORFS) is critical for ligation process. - Low conc. from Qiaquick purification - Possible buffer effects (high pH for elution) Manual cloning - concentration by ethanol precipitation greatly improved ligation efficiency - concentration - further purification Tried volatile buffer to elute from Qiaquick - poor results. Desalt by Size Exclusion using 96-well “Big Dye” removal plates Low volume, salt free, high concentration DNA inserts
