Identification of Residue Involved in Nucleotidyltransferase Activity of LinA from Staphylococci by Site-directed Mutagenesis

The lincosamide class of antibacterials is widely used for the treatment of a broad spectrum of infections, and one prevalent route of resistance to lincosamides in pathogenic gram-positive cocco is antibiotic modification. Enzymes encoded by lin genes, belonging to nucleotidyltransferase superfamily, catalyze adenylylation to inactivate lincosamides. LinA can adenylylate lincosamides at either 3?-or 4?-OH of the methylthiolincosamide sugar. The crystal structure of LinA/lincomycin has confirmed its active site. However, the residue interacting with nucleotidyl donors remains elusive. Here, we modeled the complex structure of LinA/lincomycin/Mg~(2+)/AMPCPP to reveal a putative pocket for nucleotidyl donors and suggested the residue R45 in this pocket involved in the recognition of donor substrates NTP and catalysis. ITC and enzyme activity assays show that the mutation of residue R45 impairs LinA nucleotidyltransferase activity in vitro. This work provides insights into the molecular mechanism of the nucleotide binding and transferring activity of antibiotic NTases.

Sc12Co和Sc12Ni团簇的几何结构、磁性和光谱特性的理论研究

基于密度泛函理论和卡利普索结构预测方法,在B3PW91/LanL2DZ水平下,系统研究了Sc₁₃,Sc₁₂Co和Sc₁₂Ni团簇的几何结构、磁性和光谱特性.结果表明,Sc₁₃基态拥有高对称性的二十面体I_h点群对称结构,Sc₁₂Co和Sc₁₂Ni团簇基态结构是分别以Co和Ni为中心的畸变二十面体结构.基于上述基态结构,电荷转移分析发现电荷从Sc原子向Ni或Co原子转移.磁性分析表明Sc₁₃团簇的高磁性主要源于Sc—Sc之间的铁磁性耦合和较大的自旋劈裂.对于Sc₁₂Co和Sc₁₂Ni团簇,Sc—Ni和Sc—Co各原子之间的反铁磁性耦合、较小的自旋劈裂及原子间的电荷转移量是磁性偏低的原因.而且,总磁矩主要来源于Sc-3d轨道上的自旋磁矩贡献,4s和4p轨道上的自旋磁矩贡献非常小.最后,研究发现Sc₁₂Co和Sc₁₂Ni团簇的红外和拉...

A systematical study of the chiral magnetic effects at the RHIC and LHC energies

Considering the magnetic field response of the QGP medium,we perform a systematical study of the chiral magnetic effect(CME),and make a comparison with the experimental results for the background-subtracted correlator H at the energies of the RHIC Beam Energy Scan(BES)and the LHC energy.The CME signals from our computations show a centrality trend and beam energy dependence that are qualitatively consistent with the experimental measurements of the charge dependent correlations.The time evolution of the chiral electromagnetic current at the RHIC and LHC energies is systematically studied.The dependence of the time-integrated current signal on the beam energy√s with different centralities is investigated.Our phenomenological analysis shows that the time-integrated electromagnetic current is maximal near the collision energy√s≈39 GeV.The qualitative trend of the induced electromagnetic current is in agreement with the CME experimental results at the RHIC and LHC energies.
