PRESENTATION II NAME By Christine Harvey Dihydrofolate Reductase Beta lactmase p300 Macrophage Infectivity Potentiator
Dihydrofolate Reductase in Escherichia coli
Class: oxidoreductase Reduces dihydrofolate (DHF) to tetrahydrofolate (THF) THF is a precursor to amino acids, purine and thymidylate. DHFR is imperative to cell life
Function Source: Schweitzer, Barry I., et al. The FASEB Journal Vol 4, “Dihydrofolate reductase as a therapeutic target.” May 1990.

Beta-Lactamase in Escherichia coli
Class: Hydrolase Beta Lactamase is produce by bacteria after being exposed to beta lactam antibiotics Responsible for beta lactam antibiotic resistance
Penicillin Contains beta lactam ring

Macrophage Infectivity Potentiator in Legionella pneumophila
Legionella pneumophila gram negative bacteria Causes Legionnaires’ disease Carried in aerosols from man-made water systems
MIP Class: Isomerase Catalyzes the isomeration of the N- terminal on proline Cause of virulence in Legionnaires’ disease Located on outer membrane protein 25 kDa
Crystalization Solution: 100 mM MES (pH 6.1–6.5), 15–20% (w/v) PEG 8000 and 500 mM zinc acetate. Protein concentration was 10 mg ml–1in 20 mM HEPES, pH 7.0 Crystals were grown for 2-3 weeks at 288K X-ray data was collected at 100K in a nitrogen gas stream (dried paraffin oil) at 2.4 Angstrom resolution Multiwavelength anomalous dispersion (MAD) with zinc was used for phasing
