purified recombinant wild-type or SeMet-labeled enzyme in complex with preQ0, hanging drop vapour diffusion method, mixing of 0.001 ml of protein solution with 0.001 ml of reservoir solution containing 17-19% PEG 3350, 0.15 M potassium thiocyanate, and 0.05% sodium azide, and equilibration against 0.5 mL of reservoir solution, for the SeMet-labeled protein in complex with preQ0, the same conditions are used, except crystallization is conducted in sitting drops set up by mixing 0.002 ml of protein solution with 0.001 ml of reservoir solution, 20°C, 1-2 weeks, X-ray diffraction structure determination and analysis at 1.91 A and 2.74 A resolution, respectively, modelling
structure in the presence of preQ0, reveals a symmetric T-fold homodecamer of two head-to-head facing pentameric subunits, with 10 active sites at the inter-monomer interfaces. Bound preQ0 forms a stable covalent thioimide bond with a conserved active site cysteine. QueF-L lacks a NADPH binding site
