Associations of Thermoplasma with chemical compounds

  • A histone-like protein (HTa) has been isolated from cell extracts of Thermoplasma acidophilum by column chromatography on DNA-cellulose, hydroxylapatite, and Sephadex G-75, HTa elutes from DNA-cellulose in two fractions, one of which contains an 80-residue form of the protein with an NH2-terminal sequence of Val-Gly [16].
  • To gain insight into the mechanism of action by LplA, we have determined the crystal structure of Thermoplasma acidophilum LplA in three forms: (i) the apo form; (ii) the ATP complex; and (iii) the lipoyl-AMP complex [17].
  • Crystallization and preliminary crystallographic study of glucose dehydrogenase from the archaebacterium Thermoplasma acidophilum [18].
  • A ferredoxin from the thermophilic archaebacterium, Thermoplasma acidophilum, is supposed to contain two (4Fe-4S) active centers; one center could be linked by four cysteine residues to the protein and the other bonded with three cysteines and an unknown group [19].
  • Malate dehydrogenases from the thermoacidophilic Archaebacteria Thermoplasma acidophilum and Sulfolobus acidocaldarius have been crystallized and characterized by X-ray diffraction measurements [20].
 

Gene context of Thermoplasma

  • Although SCO7095 is distantly related to several proline iminopeptidases, including Thermoplasma acidophilum tricorn-interacting F1, no aminopeptidase activity was detected [21].
  • The structure of AF2095 is also similar to the structure of protein TA0108 from archaea Thermoplasma acidophilum, which is deposited in the Protein Data Bank but not functionally annotated [22].
  • VAT, the thermoplasma homolog of mammalian p97/VCP, is an N domain-regulated protein unfoldase [23].
  • To characterize cytoskeletal components of archaea, the ftsZ gene from Thermoplasma acidophilum was cloned and sequenced [24].
  • The crystal structure of citrate synthase from the thermophilic archaeon, Thermoplasma acidophilum [25].
