Abstract
The Seattle Structural Genomics Center for Infectious Disease (SSGCID) is funded by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) to apply genome-scale approaches in solving protein structures from biodefense organisms, those causing emerging and re-emerging disease, and those showing multi-drug resistance to antimicrobial agents. The SSGCID target selection strategy has focused on drug targets, essential enzymes, virulence factors and vaccine candidates from a number of eukaryotic pathogens (Babesia, Coccidioides, Cryptosporidium, Cyclospora, Encephalitozoon, Entamoeba, Giardia, Leishmania, Plasmodium, Toxoplasma, and Trypanosoma), several bacterial genera, as well as ssDNA and negative-strand ssRNA viruses. Since the project’s inception in late 2007, over 4000 targets have been selected for entry into the SSGCID structure determination pipeline, with >1000 proteins being purified for crystallization trials. SSGCID has submitted over 540 protein structures to the Protein Data Bank (PDB), with nearly 100 from eukaryotic pathogens. Community input (in the form of target requests for entry into the structure determination pipeline) is actively solicited at http://ssgcid.org. All expression clones, purified proteins, and protein structures produced by SSGCID are available to the scientific community and should lay the groundwork for future research and drug discovery. While X-ray diffraction methods are the primary means of structure solution by SSGCID, some proteins fail to crystallize or produce poorly diffracting crystals. In these cases NMR-based methods are used to rescue a structure solution. SSGCID has two groups dedicated to solving structures using NMR-based methods that are lead by Drs. Gabriel Varaini (University of Washington) and Garry W. Buchko (PNNL). Each group has the goal of rescuing the structure solution of three targets per year. The suite of NMR spectrometers at EMSL has been essential for the acquisition of the data to fulfill PNNL’s obligations. In the past year alone the facilities at EMSL have resulted in the deposition of three solution structures plus three XRD structures into the Protein Data Bank and the publication of four peer-reviewed manuscripts. This EMSL proposal is a request primarily for NMR spectrometer resources to allow PNNL to fulfill their contractual obligations to NIAID in FY13 - the deposition of two additional NMR structures into the RSCB PDB and one functional study on a protein associated with tuberculosis virulence.
