Protein and Structure Cores
Steve Almo
Enzyme Function Initiative (EFI)Advisory Committee Meeting
November 30, 2011
• Distribution Logistics - Need to Equitably Service all Bridging Projects and Cores
• Aggressive protein production goals• Aggressive structure determination goals• Functional analysis -- ThermoFluor• cDNA/synthetic gene acquisition• Small molecule libraries for screening• Balance between pipeline technology development and
production efforts • Realize increased efficiencies and cost savings• Local instrumentation and personnel• Providing access to EFI infrastructure to the community
A wealth of experience from PSI
Major Challenges
• ~2500 expression vectors/yr. (dual vector approach)• ~1000 fermentations/yr. (2000-3000 liters of
fermentation/yr)• Deliver at least 400 sulfur-met samples to the Bridging
Projects• Deliver at least 400 samples to the Structure Core• 35-40 Structures/year• 35-40 Liganded Structures/year
– Dockable Structures• ThermoFluor Analysis of all
– Functional insight• Technology/Process Development

AHs – C-terminal His-Strep Tags
HADs – C-terminal His-Strep Tags N-term/cut
GSTs, ISs – N-terminal His-Tag cut
ENs – First C then N then tagless N again!
Initially ALL were non-cleavable C-terminal His-tags

Community Target Program is 15% of PSI Center Efforts– NYSGRC currently focuses on mechanistically diverse
enzyme superfamilies • PPG on Enolases and Amidohydrolases (Gerlt, Raushel)
– Now including Crotonase & Rubisco superfamilies – Have additional band-width for other superfamilies (Chris
Whitman; UT Austin)• Tautomerase and fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase (FAH)
